Let's Talk about Loss, with Beth French
03/04/21 • 25 min
In today's episode I talk to Beth French, founder of the UK charity 'Let's Talk about Loss'. Beth's mum passed away when she was 20 and found her grief to be both isolating and confusing. She didn't want other young people to go through the same experience, so she set up her own grief support network. We talk about what helps her to cope in the days where she still finds her grief difficult, the weird things people have said to her since her mums death and how horrendously bad bereavement cards are!

Continuing Rachael's legacy, through 'You, Me and the Big C', with Steve Bland
Welcome back listeners! In today's episode I speak with Steve Bland, who lost his wife Rachael to Breast Cancer in September 2018. Rachael was a BBC newsreader and during her cancer diagnosis she set up her BBC Radio 5 Live podcast 'You Me and the Big C', to help support others in their journey.
Steve talks openly about how they dealt with anticipatory grief and he tells us about the book Rachael wrote for their son Freddie, so he has memories to keep forever. We also discuss how he's navigated life as a young widow, his experience with grief and how it's so important to give yourself time to heal.

A pre Mother's Day message from me, Tamsin Millard
Hey guys! Since you said you wanted to hear more from me, I thought why not take the opportunity to send you a pre Mother's Day message. For those of you who are motherless daughter's like me, or may have lost a child, please know it is okay for you to deal with this day in whichever way suits you best. It's also important that if you are supporting someone grieving, that you reach out to check they are okay.
I also chat about my upcoming birthday trip to Tasmania and the great feedback I have had on the podcast so far.
