We romanticize deathbed forgiveness. We want neat endings, final grace, and redemptive closure. But what if the person who’s dying isn’t interested in giving that to you?

In this episode, Alexis explores the anger that often gets erased in end-of-life conversations—and why it’s time we stop expecting the dying to comfort the living.

Through real stories, reflection, and a very necessary truth-telling, we’ll talk about:

  • Why anger is valid at the end of life

  • The myth of the “forgiving saint” deathbed moment

  • Why dying people don’t owe you absolution, conversation, or comfort

  • How to respect boundaries when you're not the one dying

Because death is not a morality play. And no one is required to forgive you just because you're finally ready to be sorry.

Listen now, and let the dying be real—even if they die mad about it.
