#31 - What Comes Next? (Anniversary Episode)
EPISODE #31
This week (and episode) marks the one-year anniversary of When We Die Talks.
Instead of an anonymous call, I’m taking time to pause and reflect. I share what this past year has taught me. About death, grief, connection, and even my own shifting beliefs. I talk about what I’ve learned from starting the podcast, the challenges and surprises along the way, and where things might be headed from here.
I also introduce something new: Saturday Contemplations. These short weekly reflections are designed to give you a moment to sit with mortality in your own life. The first one each month will always be free, and the rest will be available through WWDT+.
WWDT+ members not only get access to every Saturday Contemplation, but also early access to new episodes. It’s the best way to support the podcast and help me keep these conversations going.
Finally, I just want to say thank you. Whether you’ve listened to one episode or all thirty, shared the podcast with a friend, left a voicemail, or simply sat with these conversations quietly on your own. It all matters and it’s all appreciated.
The episode leaves off with a bit of uncertainty (maybe fittingly for a podcast about death). To be completely honest, I’m not sure where this is going to go this next year. Nothing is changing soon, but I’ve had the incredibly fortunate opportunity to spend a lot of time on this project the past couple of months. I’m not sure how long I’ll continue to be able to do that. So if you have any ideas about how to get sponsors, grow the community, or anything like that, please reach out: zach@whenwedietalks.com.
If you’d like to watch this conversation instead of just listening, you can find the video version on YouTube.
