Join me as I sit down for an exclusive 1-on-1 conversation with DaShawn Piercy, one of the rising young professionals in the funeral service industry. In this interview, we dive into his journey, his passion for serving families, the challenges young funeral professionals face, and the purpose that keeps him grounded in this sacred work.

I’m your host, Zayvion Z. Mitchell The Coldest Mortician®. Today, we’re talking alignment: who you walk with, who you love, and how you walk with God.

Before there was gospel radio… before there were praise teams and microphones… there were metered hymns.

Songs that didn’t need no beat just a deacon, a voice, and the Spirit of the Lord.

Back in the day, these weren’t just songs. They were survival.

They were medicine for the brokenhearted.

And they were the sound of a people holding on to hope when life was heavy.

Today, we’re gonna talk about those old meter hymns how they shaped us, healed us, and carried us through.

Faith, Unity & Truth with Zayvion Z. Mitchell — The Coldest Mortician®

When God delivers you from something, don’t go back. In this episode, Zayvion Z. Mitchell unpacks what Paul meant when he said, “Forgetting those things which are behind.” Through Scripture, story, and straight talk, he explains how returning to what God freed you from leads to heavier consequences, while letting go opens the door to destiny.

In this episode, Zayvion Z. Mitchell dives deep into the power of faith and accountability. From the story of Rachel and Leah to the man waiting at the pool of Bethesda, we’re reminded that sometimes God is calling us to get up when we’re still trying to explain why we can’t move. Then the conversation shifts to our own communities how we can’t just talk about black and white conflict while ignoring black-on-black violence. It’s time to rebuild unity, restore love, and remember that faith without works is dead. Zayvion closes out with some real facts about the funeral industry, breaking down truth from myth like only The Coldest Mortician® can.

“You ever been to a funeral and thought, ‘Man, this ain’t the time for all that’?

It’s supposed to be about peace, closure, and love but instead, cousins are whispering, aunties are rolling eyes, and folks that ain’t spoke in ten years finally wanna show out.

Tonight’s topic is personal. We’re talking about something that shaped who I am and the industry I love Black funeral homes: the true backbone of our communities. Share this episode with somebody who needs to understand the roots of this profession

Funeral Homes are not scams.
