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 Together, we’ll challenge outdated narratives, spark bold conversations, and activate a movement rooted in connection and care.
Other Side Film Screening & Medical Aid In Dying Panel
Other Side follows the deeply moving story of Lynda Bluestein, a Connecticut-based activist and three-time cancer patient, who fought for the right to choose how her life would end. When the compassionate end-of-life option she sought was unavailable in her home state, she filed a landmark lawsuit in Vermont to gain access to the state’s Death With Dignity law—and won.
Join us for a screening of the film followed by a candid panel conversation exploring the evolving landscape of medical aid in dying and what autonomy at the end of life really means.
