Nothing to Fear cover

What if we didn’t consider death the worst possible outcome? What if we discussed it honestly, embraced end-of-life care and prepared for the end of our lives with hope and acceptance?

In this empathetic and knowledgeable guide, TikTok star Julie McFadden – known online as ‘Hospice Nurse Julie’ – shares the valuable lessons she’s learned in her fifteen years as a palliative care nurse. Expertly weaving emotional insight with practical advice, you’ll find out:

  • which medical interventions help and which make things worse
  • facts and myths about hospice care
  • the most important conversations to have before you die
  • the many inexplicable and fascinating deathbed experiences people have
  • how to navigate the grieving journey, before and after death

Set to become a go-to resource for years to come, Nothing to Fear shows how a better death goes hand-in-hand with a better life.

For those of you not planning on living forever, here’s the book for you. For so many reasons, we humans love to mystify death, shrouding the dying process and making it only more difficult to imagine and, in turn, more difficult to traverse. Nurse Julie has the prescription. * BJ Miller, author of A Beginner’s Guide to the End *
Comforting and enlightening, pragmatic and fearless, Julie gives us the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth to care for the people we most love when it matters most. * Steve Leder, New York Times bestselling author of The Beauty of What Remains and For You When I Am Gone *
Get the guidance and reassurance you need from someone who lives dying every single day - Hospice Nurse Julie. Julie McFadden’s Nothing to Fear is the helpful, thoughtful, knowledgeable guide you deserve as you explore what it means to face the end. * Megan Devine, author of It’s OK That You’re Not OK *
This book is a wild and true gift to everyone who reads it. Hospice Nurse Julie guides us like a loving friend, into the very territory we are most afraid to venture: the end of life ... and leaves us with the profound knowledge that life is precious and beautiful. * Claire Bidwell Smith, author of Conscious Grieving *
