Nine of us gathered and had a long-form, wide-ranging conversation about death – our experience with it or lack thereof, our grief over it, our expectation of our own deaths and those we love, our preparations or lack thereof. It's so gratifiying to meet people IRL and for everyone to share openly and honestly, to listen attentively. I'm full of gratitude and eagerly anticipate the next one.
