My two guests this week are collaborators who work together to ensure that their clients can access family involved deathcare: Trina Wacasey is an end-of-life doula, home funeral guide and the founder of Creating Honoring Spaces; and David Perfito is the founder of the first alkaline hydrolysis facility in the state of California, White Rose Aqua Cremation. They share how they came to work together in collaboration and how their model can be an inspiration for others to address gaps in deathcare in their communities. Learn more at their websites:
This episode includes:
- What a home funeral is
- Why a family might consider a home funeral (and why it may not be right for everyone)
- Why families need a guide to help them navigate the funeral process
- Trina’s “mini mobile suite” for after-death care
- How aqua cremation works
- Advantages of aqua cremation (alkaline hydrolysis) over fire cremation
- How White Rose Aqua Cremation can serve people wherever they live
- How Trina and David work together even they are located 7 hours apart
- How home funerals and eco-friendly disposition go hand-in-hand
- Why this type of collaboration is novel and necessary for forming compassionate communities
