Victor M. Sweeney is an author, podcaster, and YouTube sensation...who also happens to be the man who embalmed my father.I met Victor on one of the worst nights of my life. Yet he became a good friend. Several years removed from that moment, I now examine my surprise at how a funeral offers cozy nostalgia within grief. In this episode, Victor and I discuss ways we can make funerals feel cozy--by focusing on warm comfort, letting go of all the "should do" lists, and seeking what is familiar about the loved one we lost.Buy Victor's book, "Now Departing," HERE !Victor's website: victormsweeney.com.Victor's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/victor.m.sweeney/See his initial viral video for Wired here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4ktLen9cVMFind the rest of his videos on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@victormsweeneySubscribe to Victor's podcast, Death And:https://open.spotify.com/show/3zfERpoGRJN73WCL5ftRL0?si=a23bcf2b68724464Follow Restoring Hygge at ⁠restoringhygge.com⁠ or on Instagram at ⁠@restoring.hygge.pod⁠ Consider supporting the show through Bookshop.org.
