Listen "S4 Ep21: Life, Death & Fun-erals with Hayley"
Episode Synopsis
What happens when the unthinkable happens and instead of just grieving, you build something beautiful from it? In this episode, we sit down with Hayley who turned the sudden loss of her mum into the spark that led her to open her very own funeral parlour. But don’t expect the usual stiff suits and hushed voices. Hayley is rewriting the rules.
From heartfelt ceremonies for every age group to her brilliantly named “Fun-erals” (yes, full-on parties for those who know they’re on borrowed time), Hayley shows us that goodbyes don’t have to be grim. They can be deeply personal, funny, wild, tender and most of all, full of love.
This conversation is raw, real, and surprisingly joyful. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll probably rethink everything you thought you knew about funerals. Together, we tackle the so-called taboo of death, and discover that when we talk about it openly, life itself feels richer.
So grab a tissue, maybe a glass of bubbly, and join us for an unforgettable chat about celebrating life, even in its final chapter.
