Episode description as stored
Liz Scott has spent nearly fifty years sitting across from other people's problems, fears and vulnerabilities. But, by her own accounting, Liz’s biggest fear is dying. In fact, she’s not even sure dying applies to her. That’s the diagnosis behind the humorous and insightful You’re Going to Die but not me! A book about Liz’s near acceptance of death.  Liz Scott is a clinical psychologist in private practice in Portland, a New Yorker by origin, an Oregonian since the early nineties, and the author of the memoir  This Never Happened  and the essay collection  Love Life . She turned seventy-nine in March. In this book she goes looking for a truce with mortality through Buddhist detachment, in near-death research, in Tarot decks and psychedelics and death doulas. The book is part humor, part confession, and mostly delight about the ways we all deceive ourselves regarding the inevitability of death.
