The Interviews - Primrose Hospice: Kim Chandler on Finding Humour and Humanity in a Terminal Diagnosis

The Interviews - Primrose Hospice: Kim Chandler on Finding Humour and Humanity in a Terminal Diagnosis

What if the secret to truly living lies in accepting our own mortality?

In this episode of It’s a Death Sentence, we sit down with the incredible Kim Chandler at the Primrose Hospice. Kim shares her journey of living with a terminal secondary breast cancer diagnosis, far outliving her original prognosis, and how she chooses to embrace every single day with humour, honesty, and a refreshing lack of filter.

What You’ll Discover

- Redefining the Hospice: Why places like the Primrose Hospice aren't just about dying, but are vibrant community hubs focused on living life to the fullest.

- Finding Freedom in Finality: How accepting a terminal diagnosis can shift your perspective from anger to gratitude, and why we all need to just "look up" more often.

- Breaking the Taboo: The importance of normalising conversations around death, from planning direct cremations and living funerals to talking openly with children about loss.

Kim’s story is a powerful reminder that talking about death doesn't have to be morbid. By stripping away the fear and societal awkwardness, we can focus on what really matters: making memories, supporting our loved ones, and finding joy in the everyday.

It's A Death Sentence shares real stories of life after loss and is produced by Urban Podcasts. Listener discretion is always advised.
