You believe in the value of funerals. Now, it’s time to learn how to share that value with families. In part two of their conversation, host Paul Lovelace and renowned grief counselor, author, and speaker Dr. Alan Wolfelt move beyond the “why” of funeral education and dive into the “how.” This episode challenges you to rethink old habits, embrace your role as a teacher, and confidently lead families in a changing world. Discover practical ways to guide families with empathy, ask better questions, and use funeral ceremony elements to create healing experiences.
