In this nurturing and illuminating episode, I sit down with my long-time homeopath and dear friend, Jenny. Jenny has been by my side for the past ten years – a journey that began in the wake of Matt’s passing. Her support through my own grief has been deeply personal, gentle, and transformative, and I’m so honoured to finally share her voice and wisdom with you.

Jenny’s connection to homeopathy runs deep – it’s been part of her life since childhood, guiding her path in a way that feels both natural and intentional. Her story offers a beautiful look into what it’s like to grow up with a healing practice that becomes a lifelong calling.

Together, we unpack what homeopathy truly is, how it works, and how this gentle, natural system of medicine can support not just physical symptoms, but emotional and spiritual wellbeing – especially in the wake of loss and trauma. Jenny offers insight into what a typical session looks like, what a "remedy" really means, and why this approach honours the entire mind-body connection.

We also dive into how homeopathy can offer subtle but powerful support through the grieving process, and Jenny shares natural remedies and practical tools you can use at home to gently hold yourself or someone you love during a time of loss.

We end the episode with a vital reminder: just get talking. In grief, silence can isolate – but conversation can heal.

And remember – this is my story, and what has supported me on my grief journey. Every person’s path through grief is unique, and what helps one may not help another. So whatever support looks like for you – if you’re out there seeking it, learning, and listening – I am so proud of you for putting yourself first. That alone is a powerful act of healing.

· Jenny’s lifelong connection to homeopathy and how it shaped her path

· What a homeopathic session looks and feels like

· What a homeopathic "remedy" actually is and how it’s chosen

In this episode, I chat with Fabi about losing her dad at 16 – right in the middle of her GCSEs. His passing was sudden and traumatic, happening in their family home, and it changed everything. We reflect on the struggles of grieving while still in school and how isolating it can feel when no one quite knows how to support you.

Fabi shares how she found strength in her support network – from her close-knit family, who, despite grieving in their own ways, came together to help each other through the hardest moments, to her friends who were a constant source of comfort and understanding. We also bond over dark humour as a coping mechanism and laugh about those odd, often bizarre grief conversations that only make sense to others who’ve been through it. If you’re not crying, you may as well laugh at the absurdity of it all, right?

We also talk about how tricky it is to tell new people about our loved ones passing. Sometimes we bend the truth or use humour to avoid the awkwardness. And don’t even get us started on the grammar of death – “dead,” “died,” “passed away” – we’ve got our favourites and least favourites.

Fabi now works as a paediatric intensive care nurse, and we explore how so many of us who’ve experienced trauma end up in caring professions. Is it healing, or is it madness? We’ll never know!

We also touch on the beauty of finding "grief friends" – people who just get it without needing explanations. It’s raw, real connection in a world that often doesn’t know what to say.

Whether you're grieving, supporting someone who is, or just curious about how loss shapes lives, this episode is full of laughs, real talk, and the strange hope that comes from sharing stories.

Mentioned in this episode:

• Grieving during school
• The power of dark humour in grief
• Laughing at weird grief conversations
• Turning trauma into career passion (hello, paeds ICU)
• Bending the truth and choosing the right words for loss
• The comfort of grief friendships

💌 If this episode resonates, please share it with someone who might need it. You’re not alone – and it’s okay to cry, laugh, or both at the same time.

In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Amelia, co-founder of the charity Suicide&Co, as she shares her deeply personal journey of grief after losing her mum to suicide. Amelia opens up about the unique challenges of processing loss in the wake of suicide, especially as a young adult, and the ways in which her own experience inspired her, and co-founder Emma, to create a much-needed support system for others.

We explore how media representation, language, and societal perceptions around suicide and grief can either help or hinder the healing process. Amelia offers insight into why help-seeking behaviours and mental health resources – like counselling – are so crucial, yet often underutilised.

She also speaks about the mission behind Suicide&Co, a charity dedicated to supporting those bereaved by suicide through free counselling, accessible resources, and community.

Whether you've experienced loss yourself or want to better support someone who has, this conversation brings compassion, clarity, and hope to one of the most misunderstood forms of grief.

💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Amelia’s personal journey of grief after her mother’s death by suicide

• The founding story and mission of Suicide&Co

• Why suicide-related grief is often misunderstood, especially among young adults

• The powerful impact of media portrayal on how we process and perceive suicide loss and grief

• How language shapes the stigma, and understanding, of suicide

• Why seeking support (especially counselling) is a vital part of the grief journey

• Barriers that prevent people from accessing mental health care after loss

• The role of community and connection in navigating bereavement

• Amelia’s emphasis on self-care, patience, and permission to grieve in your own way

Amelia’s story is a brave, tender, and an important reminder that we are not meant to carry grief alone but must put ourselves first and seek that help to start our healing journey. The work of Suicide&Co is transforming how we support one another through unimaginable loss, and lighting the way forward with empathy and hope.

In this heartfelt and enlightening episode, I sit back down with Reiki Healer Jenny to chat about her journey as a Spiritual Medium. We explore the unique and often misunderstood world of mediumship – especially as it relates to grief, healing, and connection with loved ones who’ve passed.

Jenny shares the difference between a spiritual medium and a psychic medium, and opens up about her personal journey into discovering and embracing her gift.

In this episode, I’m joined by my lovely friend Emily for a really open, honest and at times light-hearted conversation about something that so many people experience but often struggle to talk about – grieving while at university.

Emily also shares her own personal story of losing her lovely Nana whilst travelling Argentina with a friend. Emily reflects on how that distance added a whole new layer to her grief with having to make tricky decisions but chose to cherish the last moment she had with her Nana, holding onto that in her Grief. She reflects on their wonderful relationship and how lucky she felt to have had that, acknowledging how grief comes from an immense amount of love which can be a lovely sentiment to hold onto in what can be a really dark and lonely time.

If you’re grieving, supporting someone who is, or just wondering how to show up better in your friendships, I really hope this episode brings you some comfort and guidance, and even a good giggle as sometimes that is all we need!

We talk about:

• Talking to friends about grief at Uni
• Feeling far from home while grieving
• How to be a good friend to someone who's lost someone
• Emily’s story of losing her Nana
• Carrying love through grief
• Letting grief be part of life, not something to hide

Thank you so much for listening. If this resonates with you, I’d love if you shared it with someone who might need it too. You’re never alone in this xxxx

This is a super special episode as another member of the Cragg family comes on the pod – my brother Harry, and this is a deep one!

We start by having a conversation that we have never broached before, about the actual day matt passed and how we both remember it. We fully go down memory lane, reflecting on our time at school, how quickly we both went back and how different our experiences were with Harry getting great support and mine not being so good in comparison to his - which he shares sad feelings over, with being my older brother.

We talk moving onto university, our differing choices of why we chose where we ended up and our grief potentially playing a part in that. How individual grief is and how even losing the same person we all respond and cope differently, and this is okay!

Harry shares the painful reality of having lost something the rest of our family hasn’t, as he no longer has a brother figure at all, and the pressures of stepping into ‘older’ brother territory earlier than expected and being compared to Matt.

We have a good old giggle and heart-warming moment over how close we have become over the last 10 years despite our trauma and how we think Matt would be smiling down on us.

Harry shares how he connects with Matt in his daily life, shining a light on whatever it is large or small that makes you feel connected to just DO IT!

We talk celebrations, pressures, marathons, music, friendships, uniqueness in grief and so much more…

With Harry ending off the chat with this advice: “don’t compare yourself, and don’t be afraid to talk and to tap in”
