    Why I Want to Be a Trauma Cleaner
    Sep 17 2025

    For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by what happens after. Not the crime itself, not the chaos — but the stillness that comes after someone leaves, dies, or disappears.

    In this first episode of Gore & Grace, I share the story of why I’ve always wanted to become a crime scene cleaner — and why I’m finally ready to pursue it. From growing up with true crime in the background, to finding comfort in horror books, to running my own cleaning business today, everything has been leading me here.

    This episode explores:

    • My fascination with the aftermath and why people are drawn to darkness

    • The honesty of horror fiction and why it’s always made sense to me

    • How my past in community services shaped my compassion for the messy parts of life

    • What trauma cleaning really is — beyond what you see on TV

    If you’ve ever found clarity in the macabre, or wanted to understand why someone would choose to clean up life’s darkest moments, this episode is for you.
