About this listen

In the first episode of this 3-part series, What to Do With What’s Left, Skylar explores one of the most surreal and emotional parts of early grief: ashes.

She shares personal stories from losing her brother Sam, the strange reality of receiving his ashes, and the quiet, often unspoken decisions families face around burial vs. cremation and how that choice can shape how we grieve.

Skylar walks listeners through some of the awkward, beautiful, and deeply human moments that come with deciding what to do with what’s left.

She also offers thoughtful suggestions for others navigating this stage of grief, from meaningful places to scatter ashes to the unconventional ways people carry their loved ones with them.
