Collecting Scars

Everything You've Ever Wanted to Ask a Mortician About Death. Carissa Explains it All!

Sydney Olson

In this episode, I am joined by Carissa Carlson, a mortician, funeral director and long time friend of mine. 

I've always been very fascinated by Carissa's family business. When we were younger, we'd have sleepovers and her dad would have to leave to go pick up a deceased body sometimes in the middle of the night, 

This conversation not only goes into Carissa's background of why she chose to go into this field, but she answers every single question and fascination I have with such grace and respect. She also sheds a light on how she takes care of herself emotionally, and how grieving family members can get through hard times. 

We talk about some pretty intense topics like the embalming process and how tissue and organ donation works, so here is the time stamp that it starts: 00:58:10 And here is where it ends: 01:11:28

I hope you guys love this episode as much as I did!
