What do you learn standing so close to the edge with so many people? Listen for wisdom on mortality and hope—like how the habits of love are hard to break and what makes a ‘good funeral’ directly from a thoughtful and funny funeral director himself.
In this episode, Kate and Thomas discuss:
- How the habits of love are hard to break, no matter how old the person died who you grieve
- How those we grieve know our hearts and our love more fully
- What elements make up a good funeral
This episode originally aired in 2022, but we’re revisiting it because I think it might be the best conversation I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to hear what you think.
