About It's Okay, We're All Gonna Die with Nurse Julie

Bad news: we’re all going to die. Good news: it might be the best motivation you’ll ever have. In It’s Okay, We’re All Gonna Die, Hospice Nurse Julie brings her honest, compassionate, and surprisingly funny perspective from years at the bedside of people at the end of life. Through conversations with guests and real questions from listeners, Julie opens up the discussion most people avoid: death. But this podcast isn’t about being morbid. It’s about getting real. Because when you understand how life ends, you start to see more clearly how to live: love your people, stop sweating the small stuff, and focus on what actually matters. If we’re all going to die anyway, let's learn how to really live first.

They May Not Understand. But They Still Feel. with Adria Thompson

Published 6 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] They experience all emotions, right? And so being able to sit with someone and give them eye contact, maybe some gentle touches, and listen to music, participate in some kind of activity... whether that's coloring together or folding laundry or sorting markers, these things are still moments of connection that we certainly will respect and we can appreciate for people without dementia. We know we can sit with our friends and say nothing at all and still have a good old time. But somehow I think that we forget that just spending time being in the presence of our loved ones with dementia still very much counts. […]
