Thanatology is the study of death, dying, grief, and loss, but what does a career in the field actually look like? In this episode, Dr. Korie Leigh breaks down the real experience of working as a thanatologist, from pediatric hospice rooms and grief counseling to academic research and the growing (and unregulated) death doula movement. You’ll hear what the emotional toll feels like, how vicarious trauma nearly ended her career, why hospice volunteering is the essential first step, and what credentials actually matter in a field where anyone can hang a shingle after a weekend workshop.
