In this episode, we speak with the CEO of Death With Dignity, Peg Sandeen, Ph.D., MSW—who has led the organization since 2005. Death with Dignity is a national leader in end-of-life advocacy and policy reform. "Our goal is to ensure people with terminal illness can decide for themselves what a good death means in accordance with their values and beliefs, and that should include having an option for death with dignity. We won’t stop until that is a reality in every part of the country."
This podcast is an extension of The 20-20 Grief Project, started in 2018 in response to Diane’s desire to understand grief's lasting effects on our lives. Inspired by the phrase, “hindsight is 20-20,” this project features real people, real stories, and real grief.
