Encore Presentation: Jodi Wellman - Memento Mori & 4,000 Mondays
Are you living your Mondays like you mean it—or are you sleepwalking through life’s most precious moments?
In this deeply engaging episode of “Better Than Fine,” Darlene Marshall sits down with Jodi Wellman, founder of 4000 Mondays and one of the internet’s favorite “weirdos for well-being.” Together, they tackle the surprisingly revitalizing topic of death, memento mori, and the question we all avoid: How many Mondays do you have left?
From the roots of the ancient Roman “memento mori” motif to the practical power of counting your Mondays, Jody explains why contemplating your mortality isn’t morbid—it’s a secret superpower for living a wider and deeper life. With insights from existential psychology, Jody and Andre invite listeners to diagnose their “dead zones,” share hilarious failures, and explore how simple pleasures (like killer brownies or watching owls online) can spark meaningful joy, even when life feels constrained.
This special encore presentation is perfect for anyone seeking to escape the rut of routines and reignite their sense of aliveness, no matter their resources. You’ll come away with actionable advice for overcoming regret, prioritizing what matters most, and infusing every day with intentionality.
Searching for ways to “hack” life, avoid regret, and thrive—even in tough times? Tune in and discover why reflecting on death could be your best tool for truly coming alive. Don’t just count your Mondays—make them count.
