Ep.2 Death and Birth

Relationship Matters

In this special episode of the Relationship Matters Podcast, Katie Churchman will be stepping into the role of guest alongside CRR Global co-founder Faith Fuller, with the show guest-hosted by senior faculty member at CRR Global, Sandra Cain. Across the conversation, they discuss what they are learning about birth and death, which was inspired by their different life circumstances: at the time of recording, Katie was 24 weeks pregnant with twins, and Faith is navigating stage 4 Uterine cancer. This discussion covers a range of topics, including:

• The similarities between birth and death
• How birth and death can be a mirror for one another
• Myth changes and secondary identities
• Disappointed dreams, grief, and the limits of expectations
• The importance of presence
• The wisdom in uncertainty
