Let us know if you want to hear this absolute shenanigans. Anyways, this podcast features the lovely Roxanne and all about her and her story. From understanding the addiction of a family member to grief and loss, we get an insight on how Roxanne manages with her mental health and the passing of her dad. She has such a matter of fact and positive outlook on how we deal with grief and it was a breath of fresh air to hear her way of living even through some of the saddest of times She has set up @LifeafterDad to help other young people learn and find hope in what she went through especially when conversations about death are awkward and tricky.
