Lockdown: Breaking Mum and Dad Dealing with Grief

Welcome to Breaking Mum and Dad: The Podcast! In this new series of Breaking Mum and Dad we focus on parental mental health all with the backdrop of a pandemic. As we’ve all been kept at home at this time, we brought the podcast into Anna’s home to be joined by her husband Alex. This week we’re talking about grief. Grief is always difficult, both to experience and to talk about, but against the backdrop of a pandemic and when you're a parent, it's all the more tricky. In this episode Anna and Alex talk about their personal experiences with grief, focussing on the loss of Alex‘s dear father Vincenzo. They talk about how grief manifests itself, how grief affects you as a parent, counselling, the importance of keeping memories alive and what to do to support someone who's grieving.Listen by clicking ‘Play’, subscribe on iTunes and please do rate and review to help spread the word. Look out for new episodes every Wednesday and keep the conversation going.@annawilliamsonofficial
