March 31, 2024 BONUS: Thinking about what we want at the end of our lives.
In this weeks bonus episode, I'm thinking about the end. That's right, the end of our lives! I promise, it's not as morbid as you think. I'm sharing how when we live with the end in mind, how it can actually make us think about how we live, truly. How you can get started documenting what you might or might not want and why it's important to!

Big love,

March 20, 2024 The death of an older child and reinventing yourself with Jane Harris, CO-founder of The Good Grief Project.
This week I'm speaking with Jane Harris, Co-Founder of The Good Grief Project.

I've known Jane and her husband Jimmy for some years now, ever since I started The Grief Gang really. It has been long overdue getting Jane onto the podcast, but here we are. Jane and Jimmy's story is rooted in the grief for their son, Joshua, who died unexpectedly aged 22 in a motorbike accident whilst travelling in Vietnam.

Since then, the breadth of Jane and Jimmy's work is extensive and so moving, all in the name of their son Joshua and to help other bereaved parents and siblings. Jane in this episode offers both a personal and professional perspective to what it is like navigating grief for an older child, whilst also being a therapist. How both Jane and Jimmy knew the importance of community very early on in their grief, especially regarding planning Joshua's funeral. And what it's like raising children whilst grieving for a child too.

Jane and Jimmy work tirelessly to support other bereaved families, their retreats are a balm for all those who need them. To support their work, find out more and buy their book, please visit their website here.

December 06, 2023 Remembering Poppy Chancellor
Today's episode is one I wish I never had to record.

In this episode, I'm remembering my dear friend Poppy Chancellor who died on the 29th of September. As you can imagine, it's rocked my world as well as everyone else who loved and adored Poppy. Our lives are forever altered by her absence and we miss her terribly.

It's a bit of a snot-fest episode, but it's my truest and real thoughts about the past few months.

I miss you always Poppy. To love and be loved by you is one the greatest gifts life has ever given me.

Big love,
Amber x

September 26, 2023 Infertility and grief with Kat Brown.
This week I'm speaking with friend and author, journalist and social media editor, Kat Brown.

I met Kat back in March of 2022 at an event and have been besotted by her ever since! In this episode, Kat shares with us her experience of grief around infertility and what her journey has been like. Grappling with the information that becoming a parent was something that was not on the cards for her, navigating this experience in a society that still believes to some degree that a woman's value in the world is dependant on whether she can birth a child or not, and how with Kat's recent adult diagnosis of ADHD has helped her in her healing.

Kat is utterly eloquent and hilarious in this episode and gave me so much insight. A truly brilliant episode.

Big love,
