Afscheid nemen en rouwen, in het groot en in het klein, is onvermijdelijk deel van een mensenleven. Maar hoe doe je dat zonder de schoonheid van het leven uit het oog te verliezen? En hoe zou het zijn om meer ruimte te maken voor lastige emoties zoals verdriet, en onszelf en elkaar expliciet toestemming te geven om te rouwen? Een lastige vraag van een West-Vlaamse luisteraar doet Eva en Maaike met positief-psychologische bril kijken naar de schaduwkant. We gaan op zoek naar een antwoord op wat misschien de zwaarste situaties in een mensenleven zijn: in een aflevering over rouwrituelen, je emotionele huishouding en actieve acceptatie.

Forget doomsday prepping – are there podcasts that could help us through the end of the world? In this episode, Nick speaks with two women grappling with this topic in very different ways. First, Amy Westervelt, creator of Drilled and the Critical Frequency podcast network, tells Nick about her work as a climate crisis reporter and how she battles rampant misinformation campaigns in order to inform her audience in a direct and entertaining way. Then Nick chats with Sophie Townsend, whose podcast, Goodbye To All This, addresses her personal end of the world: the death of her husband. She tells us what it's like to make a podcast about grief and death, and what it's like when your world has ended but it keeps on spinning for everyone else.
