From Ashes to Earth: Turning Cremation Into Living Soil | Amanda Kelly

<b>What if cremation ashes don’t actually help plants grow?</b><br /><b></b><br />In fact, they can <b>kill them</b>. In this episode of <b>YouMeWe Amplified</b>, host <b>Suzanne F. Stevens</b> sits down with <b>Amanda Kelly</b>, co-founder of Awake, to explore one of the most surprising innovations in sustainable deathcare: transforming cremation ashes into <b>life-giving soil.</b><br /><br />The idea didn’t start as a business. It started with grief. After unexpectedly becoming the caretaker of multiple urns belonging to loved ones, Amanda began asking questions about cremation, soil, and what really happens when ashes are returned to the earth. What she discovered changed everything.<br /><br />Today, Awake’s patented <b>Ashes to Earth</b> process helps families create living memorials—turning cremated remains into balanced soil capable of nurturing trees, gardens, and ecosystems. But this conversation goes far beyond science. It’s about grief, legacy, entrepreneurship, and the courage to build a <b>mission-driven social enterprise</b> in one of the most emotionally sensitive industries. Because sometimes the most powerful contribution we make… <b>is the life we give back to the earth.</b><br /><b>🌱</b><b> In this episode, you’ll discover:</b> <br />• Why cremation ashes can damage soil and plants<br />• The science behind Awake’s <b>Ashes to Earth</b> process<br />• How grief sparked a groundbreaking green innovation<br />• The rise of <b>sustainable funerals and eco memorials</b><br />• What it takes to build a mission-driven company in deathcare<br />• How families are creating <b>living legacies</b>

Beer, Business & Built-In Impact: How Endswell’s Soda Bros Is Changing Community Giving

What if social impact wasn’t added on… but built in? In this episode of YouMeWe Amplified, Suzanne F. Stevens sits down with Dana Kaluzny, co-owner of Endswell Beer in Collingwood, to explore how purpose can live inside the business model — not just the marketing. From launching Soda Bros, a youth-led social enterprise created with her sons (where 50% of profits support local community organizations), to designing a brewery culture rooted in belonging and sustainability, Dana shares what it looks like to lead with intention. In this conversation, we cover: • Baking social impact into your business plan<br />• Raising entrepreneurial kids who understand profit and generosity<br />• Setting boundaries when impact meets capacity<br />• Working with your partner — navigating strengths, tension, and communication<br />• Building a flat team culture through ownership and humility This is a conversation about beer, yes —<br />but more importantly, about leadership, community, and designing business to “end well.” If you're building something in your town and wondering how it can matter more, this episode is for you.
