I met with the lovely Lou today. I didn’t know Lou personally but we have a mutual friend who put us in contact with each other. Lou runs Moon on a Stick - she is a holistic therapist running her business in Swindon. But she is so much more than that. She has a beautiful energy and I am so privileged to have spent this time with her, discussing  not just her business, but what it’s like to be a parent carer, her part in ‘mums on a mission’ and what it was like growing up with an alcoholic mother. This is an extremely honest and moving account of Lou’s life.  A wonderful and inspiring woman.
