The Powerful Work of a Palliative Care Chaplain

Palliative Care Chaplain Cody Hufstedler shares the end of life experiences of his patients and their families using compassion, healthy boundaries, and a little bit of humor.  After 12 years of working as a chaplain, he’s seen the best and worst of death and dying.  Cody believes his job is to help people work through changes when bad news happens, and help them pivot back to the values they hold most dear.  He’s stepping into the place where panic happens and works to be the calm inside the chaos.  

As host of The Dying to Tell You Podcast, Cody features one-on-one conversations with guests who are living with a serious illness—including cancer, ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), Alzheimer's disease, brain cancer, multiple myeloma, and other terminal diagnoses. These aren't patients of his; ethical boundaries are carefully maintained. These are intimate dialogues with people from across the country and around the world who are willing to share their experiences with mortality.  Listen to The Dying to Tell You Podcast Check out The Caring Perspective Podcast here and here.
