Description

In this conversation, co-founder Lou sits down with her husband Dan to reflect on being a husband to a motherless mother.

Their story started as friends when they met on a postgraduate university course. Before they were a couple, Lou remembers telling Dan her parents had died and feeling embarrassed, self-conscious and different. Little did she know it would be one of the things that brought them together and in love.

Dan is the reason Lou feels she can dedicate time to TMM. The reason she can record podcasts, host groups, have meetings. He sits silently behind her and their family; the husband of a motherless mother. But what is it like to walk in his shoes?

An honest, important conversation on how the other half feel about motherlessness and how the impact of mother loss really does affect the whole family.

An important listen for partners – we see you too.

Love,

Lou & Adina
