Listen: How to Find the Words for Tender Conversations

Listen: How to Find the Words for Tender Conversations by Dr Kathryn Mannix

From the author of With the End in Mind comes a book about holding conversations about death, dying, forgiveness, apology and legacy.

Dr. Kathryn Mannix  spent her medical career working with people who have incurable, advanced illnesses. Focusing on palliative medicine, Dr Mannix is dedicated to optimising quality of life even as death is approaching.

This book is not necessarily about what to say, but how to listen.

“It’s my synthesis of all the wisdom I’ve learned from conversations with people at some of the most difficult times in their lives in my work as a palliative care doctor, a psychotherapist, a service lead, a trainer – and as a friend, family member and neighbour.”
