So, I Was Watching 'The Haunting of Hill House' on Netflix. The Mike Flannigan series follows the Crain's family journey in grief while adding compelling elements of horror. While watching the show I couldn't help but focus on Elizabeth Reaser's character Shirley Crain and her path to becoming a mortician. Why would someone choose a career surrounded by death? Is it as bad as an outsider would think? 

In this episode, I'm joined by Kari Northey,  Licensed Funeral Director & Embalmer. Known on social media and on YouTube as Kari the Mortician, Kari has the inside scoop on the funeral business and disproves some misconceptions about her field. Kari also talked about which series closely depicts the funeral industry and what you should know going into planning a funeral for a loved one.  Proceed with caution when listening to this episode. Time to unlock your curiosity.
