S7 E3 A deep-dive into grief with our incredible pal Stacey Heale

Today, we talk about grief - in all of its stages and strange forms. With none other than the really fantastic Stacey Heale, whose husband Greg Gilbert died three years ago.For a show about death, there's a lot of laughter. And some tears. But you've come to expect no less, of course.Stacey talks us deftly through parenting, money worries, thoughts about dating, and the 'forest of support' which surrounded her following Greg's death. The reality of carrying on alone into these years and the questions and struggles which follow; from thoughts about the afterlife to managing your children's pain, is all explored here.We're so privileged to have Stacey in our lives, and many more of her generous and unique observations are made in the beautiful 'Now Is Not The Time For Flowers,' which is out now in paperback.JOIN CLUB WAM ON PATREON FOR AD-FREE LISTENINGBUY JEN'S TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR : OUT NOW IN PAPERBACK!!

Here at WAM, our mission is Making Feelings Fashionable.For all time, women have been called hysterical, crazy and 'over' emotional. We teach you that your emotions are in fact your superpower. Starting from the launchpad of anger, the most taboo of feelings for women. Each week, psychotherapist Jennifer Cox and writer Salima Saxton invite a brilliant woman to talk about what makes them mad, and come to understand that our feelings are our compass and rocket fuel. With the Women Are Mad podcast, women finally have a space to laugh about, celebrate and learn from their previously unpopular feelings.Follow us on @womenaremad on Instagram and tell us what makes you mad.Jen's book, Women Are Angry: Why Your Rage Is Hiding And How To Let It Out is AVAILABLE NOW! Published by Bonnier and available from all booksellers. On pre-order in the US.patreon.com/WomenAreMad Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
