Meghan Daum On the Unspeakable Elements of Life, Death, and Health

Dr. Lucy McBride

Sep 12, 2022

You can also listen to this episode on Spotify!

Journalist Meghan Daum has never been one to mince her words. In her books and on her podcast, The Unspeakable, she tackles some of life’s thorniest issues — from gender politics and wokeism to death and dying — with bold honesty and humor.

Megan is the queen of nuance, a crusader against absolutism, a fearless explorer of taboos.

In this episode, Meghan gives Dr. McBride an unreserved look into some of her most vulnerable moments, including losing her mother and being placed into a medically-induced coma. Meghan’s fresh take on life, death, and health are just what the doctor ordered.

Beyond the Prescription

Each week, Dr. Lucy McBride talks with her guests like she does her patients — pulling the curtain back on what it means to be healthy, connecting the dots between mental and physical health. To Dr. McBride, health is about more than the absence of disease. Health is a process, not an outcome. It's about having awareness of our medical facts, acceptance of the things we cannot control, and agency over what we can change.
