In this powerful episode of The Prosperity Podcast, Nicole Bremner speaks with Sylvia Lewin, a passionate advocate for assisted dying. After witnessing her mother’s prolonged suffering despite her wishes, Sylvia became a vocal supporter of the Assisted Dying Bill in the UK.

📌 Key Takeaways:

✔️ 80% of UK citizens support assisted dying, yet the UK government lags behind in legalising it.
✔️ The proposed UK law requires two independent doctors to approve a terminally ill patient’s request.
