Description

Lisa is joined by Dr. Mark Goulston who shares where he shares what mortality is teaching him. Be sure to watch his video series, I'm Dying to tell you... on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ImdyingtotellyoudrmarkDr. Mark Goulston is dying to tell you about what mortality is teaching him. He is a distinguished psychiatrist and death and dying specialist facing his own mortality and the universe is telling him to share what he's learned from 50 years of listening. He says that if he knew these things decades earlier, it would have changed his life for the better. Now you can learn them to change your life for the better... and you don't need to be dying to learn them. Dr. Goulston, Fearing death is a universal human experience, what are some of the ways you’ve been able to welcome it with tranquility and fulfillment. After receiving a challenging prognosis, with a 50 percent chance of survival even with the best of treatments, Dr. Goulston embarked on a journey of introspection, reflecting on the values that have guided his life and learning to embrace his own mortality with grace. Throughout his career, Dr. Goulston has worked with dying patients, guiding many to peace in the eleventh hour. Having been witness to so many deaths—the good and the not so good—he now feels an urgency to share these profound insights and wisdom on how we can all prepare for a good death, navigate life's challenges, and find inner Dr. Mark Goulston, MD, FAPA, is a board-certified psychiatrist, former UCLA professor of psychiatry, and author or coauthor of ten books translated into 43 languages, with 600,000+ copies in print and with his book Just Listen becoming the top book on listening in the world. He is also a death and dying specialist, having been mentored by Dr. Edwin Shneidman, a pioneer in the field, and having developed his lifesaving and mortality comforting empathic skills into an approach he calls, “Surgical Empathy,” through decades of working with suicidal patients and doing house calls to dying patients. He is the co-founder of the Deeper Coaching Institute, a division of On Global Leadership that works with clients who want to more deeply explore who they really are beyond conventional coaching. He hosts the highly ranked podcast My Wakeup Call and co-hosts the weekly radio show Hurt Less, Live More on UK Health Radio. He is also a former FBI and police hostage negotiation trainer. Check out his “I’m Dying to Tell You” series on Youtube and TikTok.The values that guided Dr. Goulston’s life, how he came to have no regrets, and how you can make sure to have a good death:● Listening. Dr. Goulston has made a career out of it and has written the top book in the world about it. Deep listening, he says, was his main tool in working with suicidal patients for 35+ years, during which time none of them died by suicide. The main trick was not just to merely listen to something or someone, but to focus on what they were listening for. Nonjudgmentally search out that thing that is always lingering beneath and deeper below the surface and people will spontaneously open up.● Generosity. More than ever, we live in a society that values self over others. But in society’s constant pursuit of material acquisition, Dr. Goulston finds that generosity has made his life richer and causes him to come from abundance rather than scarcity.● Service. Through one life, thousands can be affected. Because of his deeply listening to suicidal patients, dying patients on house calls, and growing his own family, Dr. Goulston forged a career and personal life that not only elevated others, but was instrumental in his own life’s mission.● Curiosity. We learn new things every day, but it’s a childlike curiosity that keeps us hungering for knowledge. Get excited about learning new things and see where continually asking why? takes you and may help you to rediscover the joy of wonder you had as a child.● Getting stuff done.
