S03-EP23 – Life After Loss: Widowhood, Divorce, and the Reality of Starting Over
Description
n this solo episode, host Rosie Moss shares her own story with unflinching honesty.
Seven and a half years after losing her husband, Rosie now faces a second upheaval: the end of her marriage. She reflects on how new heartbreak can reawaken old wounds, leaving her once again asking, how the f**k do I get back up?
Rosie talks candidly about raising three children, two with additional needs, while navigating school moves, GCSE pressure, and the relentlessness of being the only adult her kids can lean on. She admits to feeling exhausted, isolated, and often overwhelmed, but also determined to keep going.
Amid the chaos, she finds moments of light:
Finishing her first book on widowhood.
Hosting her debut Widowed AF retreat, a space for connection and healing.
Being named a finalist at the British Podcast Awards, a reminder that her work matters.
This is an episode about overlapping griefs, solo parenting, and starting again when you didn’t think you had the strength. With dark humour, humility, and fierce honesty, Rosie invites you into her world, proof that even in the wreckage, there can still be community, meaning, and hope.
