Publisher's Summary

What is it like to start over after losing a loved one? A Buddhist widow shares her journey of love and loss and resilience.

Worried about your ability to cope after the death of a beloved friend, family member, or partner? Author and longtime Buddhist Margaret Meloni, PhD, has walked this path. With elder parents and a husband with cancer, Meloni knew death was coming. She worked to be as prepared as possible. When the inevitable occurred, she tapped into her practice and strength to keep moving forward. “I’m not the one who died” is the mantra she used to face her overwhelming grief and rebuild her life. She openly shares her wisdom with you as an advocate for death awareness.

Carpooling with Death: How Living with Death Will Make You Stronger, Wiser, and Fearless covers Meloni’s journey to accepting death as a part of life. The guidance she found through her Buddhist practice. She gained clarity in understanding how to find support and recreate her new life. Be prepared for an honest account of the challenges you will face from your friends and family. By openly sharing her struggles with herself and others, Meloni shows how you can keep living when those around you keep dying.

good content, disruptive narration

I am enjoying the content (slowly) but can't listen to very many chapters in a row because with each chapter the narrator reminds us at the start and the end of the title of the book, the author and that the author is narrating it. this is really disruptive to the flow and quite off-putting/irritating
