Bronnie Ware - What Are Your Future Regrets?

About this episode

<p>There will come a time for all of us (unless we REALLY make some improvements with bio-hacking) where we are faced with our own mortality.</p> <p>Who is at your hypothetical bedside? Are you happy with how you&rsquo;ve lived? Do you have any regrets?</p> <p>In this Summer School edition of the Academy of Imperfection, we are joined by Bronnie Ware.</p> <p>Bronnie found herself in palliative care, caring for, and listening to, the dying. And boy, are we glad she did.</p> <p>Bronnie collated, and published, the Top 5 Regrets of the Dying (listed below for your convenience), and this episode is devoted to talking through what each of these might mean for Hugh, Ryan and Josh.</p> <ol> <li>I wish I&rsquo;d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me</li> <li>I wish I hadn&rsquo;t worked so hard</li> <li>I wish I&rsquo;d had the courage to express my feelings</li> <li>I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends</li> <li>I wish that I had let myself be happier</li> </ol> <p>Perfectly timed for the New Year, we hope you get as much out of this episode as we did.</p> <p>Bronnie, thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with us.</p> <p>To watch this full episode on YouTube, follow this link: <a href="https://www.theimperfects.com.au/episode/bronnie-ware-what-are-your-future-regrets/">https://www.theimperfects.com.au/episode/bronnie-ware-wha&hellip;r-future-regrets/</a></p> <p>📖&nbsp;Things to read:</p> <ul> <li>The Top Five Regrets of the Dying - Bronnie Ware - <a href="https://bit.ly/4ghIKkf">https://bit.ly/4ghIKkf</a></li> <li>Bronnie&rsquo;s original blog post - Regrets of the Dying - <a href="https://bit.ly/4f2nmPd">https://bit.ly/4f2nmPd</a></li> <li>From Strength to Strength - Arthur C.
