You Only Die Once: Mortality, Planning, and So Much More with Jodi Wellman EP 210

Best Laid Plans

In today's episode, Sarah interviews Jodi Wellman on her work on mortality and how the concept of death / our finite lives can inspire living a life with vitality, meaning, and -- for lack of a better term, more "aliveness." Jodi holds a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and spent years exploring and applying these tough topics to help others with her work on Four Thousand Mondays and her recent book, You Only Die Once. Sarah and Jodi discuss memento mori, the darker side of habits and routines, and so much more.

You can find Jodi's work at fourthousandmondays.com and her book, You Only Die Once, at all major book retailers.
