Play This At My Funeral is a deeply fun, slightly macabre, always heartwarming show about the songs that shape our lives — and the ones we’d play at our funerals. Each episode invites a guest to curate the playlist for their own (hypothetical) send-off and share the stories that made those songs matter. In each episode, host Dinah invites a guest on to talk through the soundtrack of their life: the songs that have held them in moments of anguish, haunted them on the regular, and maybe just maybe even saved them.

    Finding Your Voice and Your Life’s Purpose with guest Erin Snow, Creator of The Unmuted Room (Ep 35)

    💐 Episode Summary You’re not ready for this episode. We’re shedding light on some traumatic early events that led to a career helping people in a BIG way with Erin Snow. We’re graced by the presence of this woman, powerhouse speaker and professional listener, and the creator of The Unmuted Room founded on a simple belief: Most people do not need advice. They need space. In creating her playlist for the show, she says she uncovered a way to leave her voice behind. We’re talking about songs you definitely don’t know from Simon & Garfunkel, Kesha, Andra Day, Ingrid Michaelson, Billy Joel and a huge array of musical theatre selections from shows including Les Miserables. Come for the music but stay for the real talk that will upend everything you think about life.  💿 Songs Mentioned “Scarborough Fair/ Canticle” by Simon and Garfunkel “Amazing Grace” by  “I Dreamed A Dream” sung by Patti Lupone from the Les Miserables musical soundtrack  “With Or Without You” by U2 “Take Me Home Country Road” by John Denver “What A Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong “Hallelujah” by k.d. Lang “My Favorite Thing” by Julie Andrews from the Sound of Music soundtrack  “Rise Up” by Andra Day “Praying” by Kesha  “Raising Hell” by Kesha  “Undrunk” by Fletcher “Auld Lang Syne (Sex and the City Arrangement)” by Banna de Minstrels “I Love You B****” by Lizzo “In Case You Don’t Live Forever” by Ben Platt “Going Home” by Mary Fahl, Mark O’Connor “Lady Like” by Ingrid Andress “And So It Goes" by Billy Joel  “Anti Hero” by Taylor Swift “Dream Girls” by Beyonce  You can listen to Erin’s playlist here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3efgHGHYa65WAphQq21CcH?si=pEAO65LFRoqyV-NHKfhiqA&nd=1&dlsi=c80e8fd4ad4c4c0f  🎙 About the Guest Erin Snow is a Professional Listener and founder of The Unmuted Room, a first-of-its-kind confidential listening space for anyone carrying more than they can say out loud. She creates private, judgment-free sessions for people who need to speak the truths they can't share with friends, family, or coworkers — whether it's the messy, complicated stories, the quiet aching questions, or the thoughts they've been softening in every other room of their lives. Before founding The Unmuted Room, Erin spent 17 years as a trauma-informed legal advocate for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, becoming the first paralegal in New Hampshire allowed to represent clients directly in family court. That experience — combined with her own — taught her a profound truth: being truly heard is not a luxury. It is a necessity for anyone carrying more than they can say out loud. Erin's long-term vision is to make listening spaces as common as gyms and as understood as any other form of wellness. She is building something quietly transformative: a world where people are finally, truly heard. 🌹 About Play This At My Funeral Play This At My Funeral is a deeply fun, slightly macabre, always heartwarming podcast about the songs that shape our lives — including the ones we’d play at our funerals.
