  • Recurrent loss

    I really enjoyed the latest episode it really resonated with me . I have read both of Elle's book when I was deep in the trenches of recurrent losses . The last chapter in bump in the road ' girl in the mirror ' really makes me cry as I did eventually make it to the other side and that chapter sums up everything for me .

    Both books are amazing and so is this podcast.

It’s comforting to hear all your feelings explained and to realise you’re not alone. This podcast was my first laug... more
