Ep 68- Samhain Special : Death midwifery with Angela of Journey Home Death Care
Manage episode 447924537 series 3334404
Welcome to the 68th episode of the Science Witch Podcast!
For our Samhain episode for this year, we interviewed Angela, Death Midwife and founder of Journey Home Death Care about perceptions of death and how to be advocates for our own death. We want to make a heavy content warning for discussions of death, suicide, and suicide ideation, but despite these heavy topics, Angela brings a gracious compassion to all these discussions and our conversation was very affirming. We have also included resources for suicide prevention in the show notes.
