Wow! What a conversation that was. Episode 2 saw Rowan and Al 'babble talk' with the marvellous @hollyreynsloves about all things perinatal, and although she may modestly flinch at this word, we can confirm that it was inspirational! Holly was open and honest, and detailed her journey from the depths of despair to the position she holds today - ultra powerful mother and mentor to those in a similar situation to where she found herself only a few years ago.
While Al is happy that there isn’t too much editing, such was the confidence and accuracy of how Holly speaks on the subject, Rowan and Al both felt warmed and educated. They may be the hosts, but it’s quite evident that every guest will teach us something powerful and invaluable.
Suicide is a leading cause of death for women during pregnancy and in the year after giving birth, and organisations like Bluebell (0117 922 0746 and info@bluebellcare.org) are massively recommended for anybody who may be experiencing a tough time with their pregnancy.
