Finding Clarity in Mortality: Insights from a Fellow Podcaster and Palliative Care Chaplain Cody Hufstedler

  • Summary

  • In this episode I welcome Cody Hufstedler, a palliative care chaplain and host of ‘Dying to Tell You’, for a deeply insightful discussion on life, loss, and finding meaning at the end. We talk about the complex themes of loss, grief, and the remarkable transformations that often emerge in life’s closing chapters. Cody’s journey into chaplaincy is nothing short of transformative. Initially hesitant, he embarked on a rigorous path of self-reflection and faith, answering a call to provide solace to those facing life’s end. He describes the intense challenges and rewards of hospital chaplaincy, where he learned to hold space for others during times of profound sorrow and vulnerability. The path was not only one of serving others but also a deeply personal journey into understanding the power of presence, empathy, and self-discovery. Cody opens up about the ways this experience reshaped his perspectives, allowing him to overcome his own doubts and biases and find a renewed sense of purpose in providing compassion and support to others during their most challenging transitions. Cody reveals the surprising peace that often surrounds those nearing life’s end, with many finding comfort, connection, and acceptance rather than fear. Through this powerful conversation, we encourage listeners to consider how embracing life’s final chapter can inspire a more intentional, graceful way of living in the present. Join us as we honor the courage it takes to face both life and death, inviting us all to live fully, love deeply, and let go of what doesn’t matter.
