Laura Sullivan Cassidy is a Gen X, Enneagram #2, Pisces Sun/Virgo Moon. She is a writer, editor, artist, and interviewer who has previously worked as a music critic, fashion and style journalist, content director, and multimedia ghostwriter. Having used the early pandemic era to train in positive psychology, grief coaching, and end of life doulaship, she now works in outreach and client care at Recompose, the Seattle-based leader in an environmental form of death care known as human composting.
Outside of that work, Laura leads workshops on death awareness and creative expression, edits a Substack called Griever’s Ball, curates experiences and zines, and makes industrial/noise/post-punk music with her partner—most recently in a project called Less Tower. She's currently working on Altered Anatomy, a collection of interviews about living in a medically amended body for an occasionally recurring event/happening called Tearjerker.
In this episode, Laura talks about her rich career in storytelling, creating meaningful spaces to celebrate life as well as grief, and so much more.
