54: You Have 10,950 Days - On Death, the Time We Have Left, and How to Actually Live the Life God Gave You
If you have approximately 30 years left to live, that is 10,950 days. 1,564 weeks. 360 months.
When you see it written out like that, something shifts. Not in a morbid way. In a clarifying way. Because most of us are living like we have unlimited time, rushing past our days, distracted by what social media says we should be accomplishing, numbing ourselves with busyness, and rarely stopping long enough to ask the only question that actually matters: what am I doing with the time I have been given?
In this episode of Coach Eve Radio, Coach Eve gets deeply personal about her lifelong relationship with death and loss. From the girl in her second grade class who had cancer, to the grandparents and family members she has said goodbye to across a lifetime, to her father seven years ago, to Adam, a spiritual brother whose death hit her in a way she did not see coming, Eve has been living alongside grief since childhood. And what that has given her is not fear of death. It is a clarity about life that most people do not find until they are forced to.
This episode covers what it means to hold the reality of death without being consumed by it, why every loss hits differently and what that teaches us, what the Bible actually says about time and eternity and living with intention, and what it looks like to stop performing a life and start actually inhabiting one. It references Judith Valente's book How to Be, a dialogue between a journalist and a Trappist monk on living, dying, purpose, and faith, and anchors everything in the truth that this world is not our permanent address.
This is not a dark episode. It is one of the most honest and life-giving conversations Coach Eve has had on this show.
