Description

Welcome to The Violet Vulture!

Today we've got a super special guest on the podcast, Rachelle Younie (she/her). Rachelle is the host of Mortality and the Morgue and a writer, director, producer, and comedian. She uses her podcast to discuss her time working in a morgue and interviews death-care professionals, artists, doctors, and more about all things death, dying, and grief.

In this episode, we'll get into the following and then some:

• The various factors that sparked Rachelle’s interest in death and always being something of a spooky kid
• On defying expectations when people hear you do a form of death work or care
• On being something of a cycle disruptor - but also knowing when to stop prodding and let things lie

• Rachelle’s particular path to working in the morgue and the lowdown on how to take care of yourself when you’re engaging in more challenging work
• Her work as a filmmaker and comedian and how integral creativity is to her essence and making sense of life
• The importance of showing up and using your platform and fostering powerful conversations, and spotlighting more diverse voices in the community

If you're up for a raw and real conversation between two artsy kids who have always been a little drawn to the dark, this one is for you.
