The first of many pods with our Spotlight Guest Diane, join her and Cristina and for a good, authentic, intimate talk between two Internet friends who met and connected over Cristina’s mental health blog. Diane shares the grief she holds following the recent passing of her dear father, Gill. The shining image of her father, Diane is an active grandma, mom, daughter and community advocate, a KOZ alumni, and such a bright and joyous light of a human being. Listen in to hear the good vibes as we organically talk about loss, friendship, KOZ, safety for children, being a survivor of childhood trauma, the power of personal anthems (hi P!nk!), neurodivergence, stimming, music, little-lady-Di, some talK fresh takes, and Diane’s incredible approach to life in spite of her losses and hardships. We are delighted to welcome and introduce Diane to the talK community. This first pod with Diane is dedicated to her late dad, Gill. He would have loved this!
