RMV 23 BJ Miller: You Can Design an Adventurous Life Inspired by Death

Today we are excited to welcome physician, author, speaker, and friend, Dr. BJ Miller. As a practicing hospice and palliative care doctor, BJ is best known for his TED Talk, "What Really Matters at the End of Life," and recently co-authored A Beginner’s Guide to the End , with the Editorial Director of IDEO, Shoshana Berger. BJ sees patients and caregivers through his online palliative care service, Mettle Health. And is the subject of Netflix's Academy Award-nominated short documentary, End Game . Listen in as BJ shares his story of recovery from a life altering accident at 19 through his perspective of creativity instead of loss, and what opened up even further after he was introduced to the profession of design. We also dig into what death can teach us about living fully, and how design can help us overcome the fear of embarrassment and shame that often holds us back from the very life experiences we desire the most.
