Understanding the Funeral Industry | Jacob Walsh

Funeral directors are often the people we meet at one of the worst moments of our lives, yet very few of us ever stop to think about what their job is really like.

In this episode of Wise Words, I sit down with Jacob Walsh, a funeral director and owner of his own independent funeral business, to discuss the realities of working with the dead.

Jacob shares how he entered the profession, the emotional challenges that come with caring for families through grief, and the lasting impact of attending the scene where his own best friend had been killed in a road traffic collision.
