I'll be facilitating this week's "Listening Club" for 5th episode of a unique and timely podcast called "Kicking the Bucket" - which explores essential end-of-life issues (which impact all ages and family members) with humor and heart. The Listening Club on Wednesday 7/30 @ Spicewood Springs Library from 6-7:30 pm will be both eye-opening and heart-felt focusing on issues of care choices, difficult decision-making, and ... yes, advanced medical directives. See copy below.

"Join us at Spicewood Springs Branch on July 30th at 6pm for another episode of Kicking the Bucket Podcast, a dramedy about a spirited elderly couple determined to avoid the nursing home. Their plan? To bite the dust together. The problem? They don't know what the heck they’re doing.
We’ll be tuning in together to EPISODE 5: "Exit, Pursued By a Bear", followed by a guided discussion with featured expert guest Jinji Willingham.

Why? What is he asking for?

In theory, satisfaction and well-being – except that satisfaction does not always bring him well-being.

Far from it.”
