What does it mean to have a “good” death?
This session challenges you to strip away societal taboos and personal fears to confront the unvarnished truths about how you want to live—and, ultimately, how you want to die. Is a good death about being pain-free? Being surrounded by loved ones? Having no regrets? Or is it about leaving behind a legacy that reflects the life you’ve lived?
Over dim sum and tea, engage in thought-provoking conversations about the values, relationships, and experiences that shape who you are. This is an opportunity to define what a meaningful death looks like to you and what steps you can take now to ensure that vision becomes reality.
What’s in it for you ?
✔️ Clarify what a “good death” means to you and what it takes to achieve it.
✔️ Gain insights into different cultural, spiritual, and personal perspectives on dying well.
✔️ Reflect on the life you are living now and whether it aligns with the death you envision.
