Summary
Some big feelings have been coming up for me recently, over Matilda finishing up at primary school in a few weeks time(!). I wanted to share this topic for my solo episode in case other Mums/parents relate and hearing my honest experience(s) may be somewhat soothing in the solidarity. WARNING: At 9 minutes 40 seconds to 9 minutes 50 seconds I speak briefly of Father Christmas in case you listen around little ones! In this episode I speak about: parenting, the change for us both and being a sensitive person filling our metaphorical cup so that we can give from a better place my experience of the first year of secondary school the support we've had from school 'anticipatory grief' and naming our feelings Themes: parenting, grief, change, school I mention Alex Trippier (Episode #10 of Series 2), Susan Cain and Lou Hynes. At the end, I read a poem by Donna Ashworth called 'Backbones'. Did you enjoy this episode? If so, I would really appreciate it if you could please leave a review on the platform that you listen.
