End Well 2025

A Day About Death & Life:

For the Curious and Courageous

This year’s theme Radical Bravery, is about showing up, even when it’s hard. It’s about the everyday courage it takes to face grief, illness, caregiving, and dying with open eyes and open hearts and the brave, collective action it takes to build a more compassionate world.

At End Well 2025, we’ll gather to explore how age-old wisdom, emerging technologies, and new models of care and community can transform how we live, how we support one another, and how we approach the end of life. Together, we’ll challenge outdated narratives, spark bold conversations, and activate a movement rooted in connection and care.
