Are we ready to have a 'maturing' conversation about death and dying that considers the concept of loss and grief and how everyone's experience does not need to be the same? Jasmine, Deborah and Anita offer different lived experiences with one common theme - they did not own the person who passed - no matter the role they played in their lives and therefore their experience of grief was not as 'expected'.

Helen offers an insight into the generation for whom the internet has been their 'normal'. Her parents introduced her to online dating and yet it was certainly not all smooth sailing. What Helen offers is an insight into manipulation, what you put in reflects what you get out and meeting the right person when you are actually ready not when you think you are ready!

Hannah has been in the online dating scene for 20 years - she started young! She now has so much to share about what to watch out for and how to embrace all it has to offer

Let me introduce you to Marika, a woman who brings a steadiness to the discussion about online dating, she normalises the practicals of talking to people and when that moment arrives to be exclusive and commit to seeing where the relationship might go. She is also a stunning representation of someone who is unafraid to be themselves - “This is who I am in all my variety of expressions”

Susan who had never done anything like this before, "it was like starting all over again”. She offers her experience as an older person and takes some of the mystery out of it. Clearly, Susan would encourage us all to have a go at something new because even though something isn’t quite right and might not continue, there is still lots of opportunity to grow for all involved. Most importantly - what is your 'WHY', for Susan it was simple, you can’t not share all your gorgeousness with someone else.

Trudy started online dating at 40. She had experienced all the comments about having to meet someone, about feeling like it was never going to happen. Then she got speaking to a local farmer! Trudy went from Mr High to Mr Right with wonderful support and a little bit of coaching from family and friends! Top tip - make sure your photo matches what you look like now...

Meet Rosie, her strengths are honesty and directness. Why mess around, why look or settle for scraps, still falling for feeling 'not worthy' of love?

Meet Shelley who has a slightly different perspective to dating sites. She has learnt a lot about herself, but also about the games, the manipulation and the resulting hurts that is rife within the online dating world. If we don't want to play the games it may be worth remembering that each swipe left or right is a person and that if you are calling not to be used, then to be sure you are acting with integrity yourself.

We think we want to 'play the field' and hang out to see if we get a better offer but I am not so sure this is the way to go! From what I am hearing from these women it is about setting a standard knowing your self-worth way before you meet someone. Then there is no question of whether you will be one to 'mess around' or not...

Each of our children are very different and no one size fits all. This Big Little Kids audio is from parents who have parented their teens through the challenge of the end of High School. Here they offer back some experience that may support you to embrace what is on offer in those last years. Still Stay in the Loop with Lucy but a slightly different flavour!
