S4E19 - After Death - The Week of the Funeral

When a loved one dies, the world tilts. The air feels different. Time both stops and rushes forward.

In this compassionate solo episode, Claire O’Berry gently guides listeners through the sacred and often chaotic first days after death — from the moment of passing through the week of the funeral. Learn what steps to take, what mistakes to avoid, and how to find meaning in the midst of grief and confusion.

Topics include:

  • Sitting with the body and honoring the sacred moment of death

  • Understanding next-of-kin and executor responsibilities

  • How to handle social media announcements with sensitivity

  • Managing funeral planning and paperwork without losing your center

  • Caring for yourself when exhaustion and grief collide

This episode offers reassurance, practical wisdom, and a reminder that there’s no “right” way to grieve — only your way.

Listen now and learn how the Dying Your Way End of Life Training provides the Executor Checklist, a vital tool to guide your family through the immediate days and weeks after a loved one’s death.
