EPISODE 13: Nicola Finch, Natural Burial
SHOW NOTES –EPISODE 13, NICOLA FINCH, NATURAL BURIAL
Nicola Finch is passionate about caring for our own dead. Through her lived experiences and how her family approached death, Nicola knows the value of being with her dead, caring for them, and participating in companioning them to their final resting spot makes a difference for the grievers; for those left behind. Nicola shares personal stories about the death of both her parents, and the unexpected death of her brother at a young age. Her stories will help us all to understand exactly how it can make tragic circumstances just a little bit easier.
As part of “caring for our dead”, Nicola also talks about the importance of natural burial, and how, in the province of BC we don’t have enough opportunities or locations where we can provide a natural burial for our loved ones, or ourselves.
Our conversation together will definitely give you something to think about – and maybe alter your perspective, just a little, if you haven’t yet considered how you want to be cared for after death, or how you may wish to care for your dead loved ones.
Have a listen!
