In this episode, hospice nurse and educator Kath Murray speaks with Rami Shami, a longtime palliative care provider and advocate, about how we can bring humanity, dignity, and cultural humility into end-of-life care. Drawing from decades of experience, Rami shares reflections on presence, vulnerability, and what it means to walk alongside someone in their final chapter. Together, they explore the emotional landscape of caregiving, trauma-informed care, the importance of honoring autonomy, and how small acts of compassion can make a lasting impact. With rich stories and deeply personal insights, this episode invites listeners to reflect on how we show up—for ourselves, and for others—when it matters most.
