Who knew that TikTok videos about death and dying would gain 800,000 followers?  Hospice Nurse Julie is our guest, talking about why her hospice videos have gone viral, and what she finds meaningful about working in end-of-life care.   RN Julie McFadden started making the videos, never dreaming that four days later so many people would connect with her content.  As a hospice nurse, Julie has heard all the questions from patients and families dealing with serious illness.  Topics of her videos include the dying process, end of life medications, visioning, and what a natural death looks like.  The average age of a TikTok user is 16-24 years old, not the group you’d think would be interested in conversations about death. Julie believes that taking the mystery out of death and dying takes a lot of the fear out of the experience.   Connect with Hospice Nurse Julie at Hospice Nurse Julie's TikTok.   Read the Newsweek article about Hospice Nurse Julie here.  Find more information about hospice philosophy, end of life care, and self care for both personal and professional caregivers here.   Find more podcast episodes from The Heart of Hospice here: https://theheartofhospice.libsyn.com/ Connect with podcast host Jerry Fenter at jerry@theheartofhospice.com.
