Living Fully for Today with Larkin McPhee

What does it mean to truly live when you're facing death?     My guest today, Larkin, walked beside her brother Charles through his battle with ALS — and learned that death is just another doorway to walk through. Charles met his illness with a faith so deep it was palpable, and a zest for life that never dimmed, even as his body did.     A lesson to all of us on how to walk through the next doorway.     Larkin's new book, I'll See You in My Dreams, tells their story — a sister and brother finding meaning, humor, and grace inside the hardest goodbye. We talk about what he taught her, what she carried forward, and what it looks like to stay fully present with someone you love as they're dying.     Larkin is a Peabody and Emmy Award-winning documentary director, producer, and writer with over 30 years telling human stories — on mental health, the environment, science, and the quiet resilience of ordinary people. Her acclaimed PBS work includes Depression: Out of the Shadows, Dying to Be Thin, and Caring for Mom & Dad. She's built her career at NOVA, National Geographic EXPLORER, and Smithsonian World — and now she's turned the camera on her own family's story.     LEARN MORE ABOUT Larkin McPhee:   Website: https://larkinmcphee.com/    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/larkinmcphee/    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/larkin.mcphee3      JOIN MY COMMUNITY   -         Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/catherineduncanmabcc/ -         Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/CatherineDuncanmabcc -         YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@catherineduncanmabcc -         Website - https://www.catherineduncan.org   Everyday Awakening with Catherine Duncan is a journey into our heart and soul and oneness with the Universe.
