31 MAR 2022 · Happy Spring, death workers! In this month’s episode, Lauren walks us through her evolution into becoming a more death positive person as we welcome spring’s transformative energy into our lives. Whether you’ve already immersed yourself in the death positive movement or you are at the beginning of your own journey, this episode will provide practical ideas, creative inspiration, and a larger context to what it means to reclaim our relationship to death, loss and grief by visiting graveyards.
Some questions that Lauren addresses include:
What does it mean to be “death positive”?
What is the death positive movement?
How can we put death at the center of our lives through visiting cemeteries so as to create a more healing relationship to loss, grief and the rebirth process?

12 FEB 2022 · In this month’s episode, Lauren is joined by her first guest, Irene Ouyang. Come hang out with us as we chat about how our past relationships influence our current romantic partnerships, dealing with friendship loss the closer we get to our thirties, and learning from romantic break-ups in ways that make us better people.
It is not only the death of people that results in grief. We are shaped and molded by the death of a relationship, whether romantic or platonic. As in the case of ambiguous loss, sometimes we grieve people who are still alive.
