Listen in as they discuss the importance of levity in hospice care, how humor can make tough conversations more approachable, and the common spiritual shifts people experience as they face the end of their journey. Cody shares insights from his extensive experience, shedding light on the idea that people often die just as they've lived, and the transformations they undergo along the way.
