Who says the funeral industry is run only by men? In this powerful episode with the DeathWives, host Jennifer speaks with the DeathWives—Lauren, a funeral director, and Erin, a death doula, to uncover the stark reality of the funeral world.
Part of the Deathwives’ mission is to bring healing to people who seek it. Through various workshops and educational retreats, Lauren and Erin teach people about the history and practices of death work and how to traditionally honor the dead. And not even the COVID-19 pandemic could stop them from empowering and creating a safe space for their community.
