In this intimate and unflinching conversation, I speak with Zen teacher and former hospice chaplain Renshin Bunce about life, death, and the tender space where they meet. We do not shy away from naming things as they are. Renshin shares personally from her own path, her years of hospice chaplaincy, and the many different ways people approach dying.
With honesty, warmth, and a clear Zen flavor, this episode explores what it means to show up with presence at the threshold of death, how our culture often avoids this sacred reality, and why talking about dying matters so deeply. Renshin shares stories, reflections, and insights into the spiritual and practical dimensions of end of life, reminding us that death is not separate from life, but intimately woven into it.
