The idea of death is something most of us never like to talk about. It can be so heartbreaking to be at a funeral and watch a family grieving over a lost loved one. And because of the pain we feel when we think about those we know someday dying, we normally avoid the topic. But for Irishman Ronan Conneely, he is surrounded by death everyday. At 22-year-old, he is one of Ireland's youngest embalmers. And in this podcast interview, he tells Colm about how he started working in the family business at a young age, helping his father collect people who had died and bring them to the funeral home. He also talks about the toll the job takes on his personal life and how the work has affected his attitude towards life and death.
