You're listening to the human upgrade with Dave Asprey.

This is one of the rare special editions where I do an intervention with a member of my mentorship and membership community called the upgrade collective.

And this is more than a thousand people who get together every week with me or with my team, usually a combination of them.

And we work on biohacking. We help each other. We've got our own app.

And it's a really powerful community.

And what I'll do is once a month, I'll sit down with someone from the community and says, hey, Dave, I want your help hacking a problem.

And then I walk through solving the problem with that person on the air so that you can learn from what they have to say.

This will be a really important episode for you if you're alive.

Because what we are going to do today is talk with a designer and an actor who is 74.

She says, Dave, I wonder how to achieve the most conscious and self-sufficient death.

Because she's 74 and she's thinking about it.

Her name is Nancy Sheber. And you might have seen her where she was on the untouchables, the young and the restless and the new Adam 12, the swimmer, a dancer, a equestrian.

Nancy, welcome.

Thank you.

I haven't heard all of those for a long time. I've been out of the acting business for a while.

All of my life, I never thought about, I never thought about actually dying.

And then I was there when my father passed and we had a lot of animals.

So I witnessed death. I've always been fascinated by the process.

My meditation community talks about it.

My meditation teacher said that long time meditators die with a smile on their face.
