"It was so momentous. How do you live? I didn't know who I was. And this clear thought came to me: You have two choices here. You can curl up and become a bitter old woman, because it's not fair what happened to you. OR you can surrender - it's happened. And go forward, however you do, and walk that open-hearted path towards healing." - Dr. Kaye Cleave in the wake of her daughter's death In this episode of You're Going to Die: The Podcast host Ned Buskirk speaks with Dr. Kaye Cleave. Her children's picture book—A Kangaroo Tale—helped raise funds to build a school in a remote Nepalese village in memory of her daughter. Her award-winning documentary, Catherine’s Kindergarten, about the death of her daughter and the life Kaye has lived to grieve, honor and celebrate her, has screened at film festivals world-wide. Kaye is currently on the Advisory Board for Impact Schools in Nepal and co-leads Grief & Healing Retreats at Laguna Writers in San Francisco. kaye cleave's website: https://www.kaye-cleave.com/ ig: https://www.instagram.com/ageingdisgracefully_/ watch Catherine’s Kindergarten documentary: https://catherines-kindergarten.com/ Get episodes before everyone else by becoming a patron now at https://www.patreon.com/YG2D.
