Summary

Hello and welcome to Adulting, and the third episode of Let’s Talk About… a broadening of Adulting... where that was about all of the things we never got taught in school, this is almost like seminars on life; where my audience (that's you!), get to chat anonymously about things they couldn't necessarily discuss over lunch with their friends, or feel like they don't have anyone to talk to about whatever it may be.

To get involved, follow me on Instagram @oenone, where every Tuesday we vote on a topic, and every Wednesday we dig deep.

Let’s Talk About…parent mortality. The submission read: parents mortality… my dad is terminally unwell and I am only 28.

Before we begin I just wanted to give you a trigger/content warning. I received so many messages about parental loss, grief, being a carer, dealing with terminal illness, and so if any of those subjects are too close to home or may be too upsetting this episode might not be for you.

Although despite the very difficult subject matter, so many of you expressed how much of a relief it is to actually talk about grief and loss in a culture that has a strange and fractured relationship with death. So many of us don’t really know what to say or how to talk about it, which is why I was so grateful that so many of you were so generous with your own experiences.

Please do let me know any feedback and always, I'd love for you to rate, review & subscribe, it helps people to find the podcast,
