Grief & Happiness

Memorializing The Ashes of Loved Ones Lost Through Art with Robin Collier


Listen Later

What have you done with the ashes of your loved ones that you’ve lost?  Turning the ashes into something beautiful is a great way to honor their life and the beauty of their soul. 

 

In this twenty eighth episode together, I am joined by the amazing Robin Collier. Robin is the founder of The Ash Experiment, a glass blowing company that infuses cremated ashes into their glass. Robin and the four other glass blowers that she works with take a portion of the ashes and turn them into a stunning glass sculpture so family and friends can have an art piece to memorialize their loved one that they have lost. 

 

Throughout this episode,  Robin and I have a great conversation about how she began glass blowing and why she decided to incorporate cremated ashes into her work. Robin talks about the events that led her to be inspired to start The Ash Experiment, the personal losses she has gone through, her perspective about grieving, and so much more.
