Widows fire: What actually is it? With Stacey Heale.

This week Im speaking with Stacey Heale, writer, speaker, curator and campaigner and all round bad ass!Stacey joined this shit gang last year when her husband Greg died from bowel cancer. I found Stacey online before Greg had died and found myself following the journey of this family of 4. Quietly rooting for this family from the sidelines and sending little pocket prayers. Stacey's writing did and still does floor me. She writes so eloquently, honestly yet brutally about grief and widowhood. She cuts the shit and thats why I adore her. Fuck the platitudes and who's actually going to say or ask the questions we’re all thinking? Stacey Heale, thats who.In this episode Stacey and I go into the topics about widowhood that may not get spoken about as much. What it's like to become a carer for someone you love and the relationship dynamic changing, the potential anger that can come towards that, though it's no ones fault.AND we talk about the elephant in the room that shouldn't really be the elephant in the room. SEX and more specifically..WIDOWS fire. That parts quite funny to be honest and we really had a chuckle. Stacey shares with us how as she approached her 40’s, she learnt that women tend to peak in sex drive around that age…and the horror that her husband then dies! Pissed is an understatement.It's such a versatile episode. We laughed, cried and reflected and also dropped some Brene Brown gems!WIDOW SUPPORT ACCOUNTS TO FOLLOW:@WIDOWSLOSTANDFOUND@KARENSUTTONWIDOWCOACH@WIDOWEDANDYOUNG @[email protected] Happy listening.Big love,Amber xxxFollow and be part of The Grief Gang community:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegriefgangpodcast/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/thegriefgang?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5EauthorFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGriefGangYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCpe5pGmjvqPFteN4L7T_ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thegriefgangWebsite: https://www.thegriefgang.com/Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thegriefgang.
