Redefining Death as a Context for Meaningful Living

In her Ted Talk, Eluah Arthur, a lawyer and death doula, challenges the grim finality of death and encourages us to embrace death as a context for living more meaningfully every day. She envisions a good death as dying in one's own bed, surrounded by loved ones, with affairs in order, and with a sense of fulfillment. By acknowledging death and the finite nature of life, we can find clarity in our priorities and curate our lives in alignment with our values.
