As we close out our For the Love of Facing Your Fears series, we're diving headfirst into a topic that we will all face at one point in our lives (hopefully later than sooner); our very own expiration dates. It's one of humanity's most universal yet daunting fears, and we've got a compassionate and experienced guide to walk us through the kinds of things we might wonder about, and the beautiful unexpected moments that can accompany our final days. Hadley Vlahos is a hospice nurse whose life experiences and work have provided her with profound insights into the final chapter of our lives. Hadley opens up about her personal journey through struggles and grief, her entry into nursing as a calling, and her perspectives on the beauty that can be found even in our final moments. Her book, "The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments," encapsulates powerful stories from the bedside of the dying, some of which she shares with us, including the tranquility of the in-between and the serendipitous moments bringing peace to those passing. With over 1.4 million followers captivated by her TikTok narratives, Hadley's perspective takes the edge off the many worries we may have about the end-of-life process. Join us for a truly poignant exchange that affirms life's beauty—and its beautiful conclusion. * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “Most people think [death] is very sudden. There was a recent study that over 80% of what we're shown on TV is very violent and sudden. In reality, the way I compare it is to birth; just like how our bodies know how to give birth and they know how to grow a baby, the majority of time with death, our bodies do know how to die.” - Hadley Vlahos “For someone to say, ‘You know what, I'm going to I'm going to go home and I'm going to be with my family and I would like to remain comfortable.' I think that there's a lot of power in that, and I don't see it as giving up at all. I see it as taking your fate into your own hands.” - Hadley Vlahos “I wish more people would just talk to each other about the end. Surprisingly, even though someone's in hospice, I still see a lot of hesitancy to talk about the end. When they can do that, I find that patients feel a lot more peace around the end and what is coming.” - Hadley Vlahos “What am I doing today that I would be excited to be telling my hospice nurse about one day? And that has given me an incredible drive and passion for life that I just totally didn't expect.” - Hadley Vlahos Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The In-Between: Unforgettable encounters during life's final moments by Hadley Vlahos Five Wishes Guest's Links: Hadley's Website Hadley's Instagram Hadley's Facebook Hadley's Twitter Hadley's TikTok Connect with Jen!

On this show, I sit down with people from all over the world to hear their transformational stories on their deep grief and loss journeys.    Have you ever thought about what it looks and feels like when someone is nearing the end of their life and will be crossing over soon?   In this episode, I speak with Nurse Hadley Vlahos, a registered nurse working in hospice care, and a mom, wife, and soon-to-be author from the New Orleans area.    At just barely 20 years old Hadley became a mom, a single mom, and left her dreams of being a writer behind to pursue a more stable career path of becoming a registered nurse.    After a year of working in the hospital and a nursing home, she felt immensely drawn to hospice. She has cared for hundreds, if not thousands, of patients at the end of their life in the most intimate setting - their own home.   In 2019, Hadley and her family moved to a new city, away from everything and everyone she had ever known. After feeling pretty lonely, her husband suggested connecting with people on social media. So, she picked up the camera in early 2020 and started talking to it like a friend, telling stories from her work day. She has reached over one million other people and helps ease anxiety around death.   Listen in as we talk about: Why Hadley shifted into being a hospice nurse How being a hospice nurse has shifted her perspective of death and dying The lessons she learned from her dying patients  How she thinks about life now The power of social media when it comes to community and sharing our stories about loss Resources mentioned in this episode: Rock On: Mining for Joy in the Deep River of Sibling Grief by Susan E.

It is such a whole person experience. We really are making sure that not only the patient is taken care of, their mind/body/spirit, but their family as well. And I was not taught that in nursing school.” 8:31 “If you have religious trauma, maybe you don't want to read some of these things. But I've been really shocked about the amount of people who say that this helped them with religious trauma. And they loved reading a book that says, ‘yes I was raised in the church, but I have now taken care of people from all backgrounds, all denominations, and I see that it can be beautiful and peaceful no matter what', and they said that it has helped them.” 10:25 Hallucination vs. truly seeing dead loved ones. 11:58 Who are we to correct a dying loved one by telling them that they're hallucinating and no one is in the room?! 14:40 Hadley hasn't witnessed a patient who has had a bad experience when it comes to seeing dead loved ones at the end of life. 16:41 Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, Christopher Kerr, and seeing a mist at the time of death. 17:49 Hospice isn't in the business of speeding up death. Some patients actually live longer than expected once they're comfortable and out of pain. 19:08 The “Surge of Energy” that some hospice patients experience before they die. 20:08 People who are described by loved ones as stoic, reserved, and introverted tend to wait to pass alone. People described by loved ones as open and extroverted tend to wait and pass with loved ones by their side. 22:49 Burnout, boundaries, and the struggle hospice nurses have of getting attached to their dying patients. 25:18 When caregiving is new. Choosing hospice care. 26:51 The lessons Nurse Hadley has learned about the way to treat people! 28:57 How do medical schools and nursing schools need to change in order to adequately prepare our nurses and doctors for end-of-life treatment? 30:52 “I'm going on a trip.” Nurse Hadley's thoughts on what happens once we die and get to the Other Side. “Whatever is next is something that cannot be explained using the language we have, the references of our world that we have. It is just something that we cannot understand.” 34:41 “You cannot bring your own beliefs to the room. You need to leave them at the door.” 37:05 The story of the special, top secret red beans and rice recipe that a former patient shared with Hadley. 37:41 The Hadley House, Hadley's nonprofit family-centered hospice house that facilitates meaningful gatherings, allowing patients to celebrate their lives with loved ones. 40:05 Final thoughts from Nurse Hadley and other details about the book. 43:37 Outro 45:00 A special THANK YOU to Patreon supporters at the Super Paranerd and Parlor Guest level! 46:18   For more on Nurse Hadley Vlahos NurseHadley.com HadleyHouse.org The In-Between on Amazon TikTok: @nursehadley Instagram: @nurse.hadley Facebook: @nursehadley     The Big Seance Podcast can be found right here, on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Pandora, Spotify, TuneIn Radio, Amazon Music, and iHeart Radio.

Penn and I have had our fair share of interactions with hospice as our loved ones grow older. There are so many people who don't always have access to hospice care in the way they would like. But one thing I do know, the nurses who care for us in our final days are a special breed. One of these special nurses is Hadley Vlahos, a registered nurse devoted to hospice care.Hadley (or Nurse Hadley as she is known online) recently wrote a New York Times best-selling book The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments and she joined us on this week's podcast. She writes about the life lessons she gained from her patients and the phenomenon of “the in-between.” These are the days where it seems people have one foot here on Earth, and the other somewhere else. It turns out, you can learn a lot about living from the dying. We talk to Hadley about some of her stories in the book, our own experiences, and her efforts to change the way we die with her non-profit, Hadley House.

The world of hospice nursing has always been a profound intersection of life and death, revealing lessons not only about the journey of mortality but also about the true essence of living in the shadow of it.   On this Podcast, my guest is Hadley Vlahos or simply Nurse Hadley. Hadley is not just a seasoned hospice nurse but also an end-of-life educator and now a New York Times bestselling author. Her journey and her experiences became the foundation for her bestselling work, The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments. The book captures deep, poignant stories from her time with patients, giving insights into what life's final moments can teach us about existence itself. Beyond her written work, Hadley has taken a step further with her nonprofit respite hospice house. This sanctuary is conceptualized to offer families a peaceful environment to remember and celebrate their loved ones.   In today's episode, we cover these topic points : Her journey from young mother to nurse and from hospice nurse to author. Hadley's experiences where patients stated and acted out as if they were seeing their deceased loved ones - and what they reveal about end-of-life encounters. The enigma of the "in-between moments" and their interpretations. Our shared narratives on the afterlife and my skepticism. Some common and not-so-common regrets of the dying How Hadley thinks about death and how she tries to live her life in its shadow And lastly, the practicalities of hospice, from deciding when it's time to seek hospice care to understanding the intricacies of coverage. Despite the heavy nature of the topic, this episode is remarkably life-affirming. Many thinkers, from philosophers to psychologists, have advocated that understanding our own mortality paves the way to a richer, fuller life. Today's discussion provides not just a touch of emotional depth but also very practical advice that is invaluable to hear in advance of ever needing it.    For show notes and more, visit larryweeks.com

Dying … is not a topic most of us like to talk about. But we probably should, considering that all of us are going to do it someday. But how do we have those conversations — and why don't we when it matters most? Abdul reflects on our odd relationship with the one thing all of us will do. Then he speaks to Nurse Hadley Vlahos, a hospice nurse, and author of the new book “The In-Between.”

Sharon is joined by Hadley Vlahos, RN, who has written a bestselling book about her experiences working as a hospice nurse. Hadley walks us through the discomfort of death with great compassion and empathy while considering what it means to live well, and to die well. She explores commonalities in death spanning across a variety of faith backgrounds, many of which have no definitive scientific explanation. We're encouraged to embrace the dignity in dying by allowing our loved ones to share their experiences in death. And while there is no one right way to die, we can gently hold space for our loved ones in the in-between.Host/Executive Producer: Sharon McMahonGuest: Hadley VlahosAudio Producer: Jenny Snyder Hosted on Acast.

She has cared for hundreds, if not thousands, of patients at the end of their life in the most intimate setting - their own home.   In 2019, Hadley and her family moved to a new city, away from everything and everyone she had ever known. After feeling pretty lonely, her husband suggested connecting with people on social media. So, she picked up the camera in early 2020 and started talking to it like a friend, telling stories from her work day. She has reached over one million other people and helps ease anxiety around death.   Listen in as we talk about: Why Hadley shifted into being a hospice nurse How being a hospice nurse has shifted her perspective of death and dying The lessons she learned from her dying patients  How she thinks about life now The power of social media when it comes to community and sharing our stories about loss Resources mentioned in this episode: Rock On: Mining for Joy in the Deep River of Sibling Grief by Susan E.
