Project Manager of the Afterlife
The founder of a new startup, Sara Tashakorinia, has launched a service that gives people an “honorary badge” of a project manager for a project they had no idea about. The service is designed for people who have lost a loved one and are now managing the aftermath of their death.
The project manager badge is meant to help people navigate the complex tasks that come with losing a loved one, such as handling funeral arrangements, managing debts, and dealing with legal paperwork. Tashakorinia says the badge is a way to acknowledge the emotional and logistical challenges that come with grief.
The service is still in its early stages, and Tashakorinia is seeking feedback from users to improve the platform. She says the goal is to make the process of managing a loved one’s affairs as smooth as possible.
While the concept is unique, some critics argue that the service may not be necessary for everyone. Others say it’s a creative way to help people cope with the loss of a loved one.
Tashakorinia’s startup is still in the early stages, and it’s unclear how widely the service will be adopted. However, the idea of a “project manager for the afterlife” has already sparked a lot of discussion online.
