The Work We Carry

Welcome to The Work We Carry. We often ask what people do for a living, but rarely about what that living does to them. This podcast explores the layers of the workforce through some really beautiful human stories. From those who hold space for our heaviest endings and health crises, to the people who curate our spaces of deep rest and even celebration, we dive into the unexpected impact of our labour. Join us for real stories, honest insights, and a look at the invisible imprints, wonder, and weight that people carry home when the "shift" ends.

    Episode 1 - Death doula & death literacy educator

    In this episode, we dive into what "death literacy" means with death doula, mortality educator and death literacy educator, Danni Petkovic. We talk about the positive impact that comes from planning for the end while we are well, and how stepping into the space of death can dismantle our heaviest anxieties. This conversation is an invitation to strip away the fear, open up honest dialogue around the kitchen table, and understand that planning for the end is ultimately a profound act of love for the people we leave behind.Enjoy our very first discussion - don't forget to share your own story or suggest a guest for future episodes.
