My guest today is Carla Harvey. She is not your average death care professional. Alongside her background in embalming and funeral directing she is an internationally acclaimed front woman in Heavy Metal, bringing a unique blend of expertise and passion to the world of death care. After earning her Associate of Science in Mortuary Science and her Bachelor of Science in Mortuary Management, Carla embarked on a journey to redefine the way we approach death and grief. Recognizing the need for creative and non-traditional support, she became certified as a Grief Coach and a Bereavement Specialist. In her 17 years of navigating the death industry, Carla has witnessed firsthand the transformative power of embracing mortality and facilitating grief. Driven by her own experiences in both the funeral home and on stage, in 2016 Carla founded Good Grief, a bereavement center tailored to the unique needs of rockers and alternative communities worldwide. Through Good Grief, she provides a safe space for individuals to explore their grief, mental health in a supportive and understanding environment. Carla Harvey is more than just a death care professional – she's a force for change in an industry that is ripe for evolution. Carla’s current role is Partner Success Manager for innovative death care company Parting Stone. #partingstone #carlaharvey #butcherbabies #deathcare #deathcareprofessional #griefcounselor #funeralservice #funeralhome #cremation #greenburial #traditionalburial #casket #heavymetal #deathmetal #rockmusic
