Cariad Lloyd is an actor, comedian and writer (and one of our faves), who has been talking about grief since the death of her father when she was 15. She’s turned her experiences into an award-winning podcast, Griefcast, and a bestselling book, You Are Not Alone. She’s now written a children’s book, Where Did She Go?, which aims to improve how we talk about death with children. Jen catches up with Cariad to chat about youngsters and grief, normalising those conversations, and fascinations with Nelson Mandela.
