Your Morbid Friends is a partnership of an LCSW and an Ecopsychologist, both experienced psychonauts who are passionate about death literacy and changing the death industry. Robin and Cassandra met as co-workers at a psychiatric private practice in NYC, but first got to know each other at a psychedelics conference. On a lunch break, they discovered they had a mutual desire to create supportive spaces for grief. Recognizing the kindred spirit, they continued to talk and brainstorm how to spread The Gospel of Death Is Not So Scary and put a few events on the calendar and four months later, Your Morbid Friends was born.

By developing partnerships with nonprofits and community spaces, YMF has been offering events for different groups including LGBTQ+ elders and curious New Yorkers, touching on many of the different sizes and shapes of grief along the way. Though still a young company, participants frequently cite their gratitude for the much-needed space. Your Morbid Friends are excited to continue co-creating these spaces as well as developing more offerings in the future.
