When you think of dying, what do you think of? What timeline do you give yourself? Does a certain age pop up? Many people envision growing to 70 or 80 years old and wrinkling away. Rarely do we think of death as a thing that will happen tomorrow or even today. But why not? 120 people die per minute. By the end of this podcast episode, over 1,000 people will have died. For most of them, it came by complete surprise. How certain are you that it won’t be you in this next minute or day? And  does the life you live this moment reflect that impending reality? Today we're talking about how we can use death to motivate us to live a more fulfilled life.  For more, my TikTok is @thewoolesswoman

When you think of nihilism what do you think of? When most people think of nihilism, they think of some depressed kid living in the basement. Optimistic nihilism turns that stereotype around and creates a beautiful narrative out of a previously impalpable idea. Optimistic nihilism is not a philosophy of despair, but one that frees us and empowers us to make something more of this meaningless life. In hopes that when we pass and cease to exist, we can go to the grave saying, “I did the damn thing and I did it well". I hope this episode sheds more light on Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy of Nihilism and existential nihilism. To follow me more: Tiktok @thewoolesswoman
