Guided Transitions

Sound and Memory founder Concetta Abbate met with Mandy Kim and Zoe Abedon of Radical Podcasts at the Machpelah Cemetery in Queens, NYC to discuss all things death, dying, arts, creativity and music.

On an early spring day in NYC Sound and Memory founder Concetta Abbate met with Mandy Kim and Zoe Abedon of Radical Podcasts at the Machpelah Cemetery in Queens, NYC to discuss all things death, dying, arts, creativity and music. For this episode, host Zoe participated in an advanced care planning session with Concetta subsequent to their cemetery chats. Zoe further explores her reactions to planning for end of life.

“What happens when we talk openly about death? In this episode of Guided Transitions, we sit down with death doula and musician Concetta Abbate to have honest, meaningful conversations about mortality. We explore what it means to be a death doula, why confronting the end of life can make living more meaningful, and how a cemetery can become a place of connection, reflection, and even comfort.”
