Welcome to a TSWU Raincheck. While you wait for new content, here is a short extract from earlier episodes to tide you over.

This week hope. What it is and what it isn’t

As parents we have pivoted and adjusted in so many ways. Our view of the future, ourselves, our family. It seems it is even possible to track some of those changes on the podcast. This week we have a rain check looking how our perspective on hope changes.

Extracts are from:

Season 1 Episode 3; and

Season 3 Episode 11

We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.

Wrapping up our theme on families, they reflect on all our episodes and what they have learned along the way. Top musings include;

• How our expectations can be unfair as well as unrealistic
• Imagined realities are a potent draw to disappointment
• Coping mechanisms can evolve over time and may need re-evaluation
• It's okay to feel hurt, but we can choose our responses
• Knowing who we are, communication and boundaries are the heart of good family dynamics

After a half term Raincheck we will be back thinking about health and well-being.

Join Rachel, Lucy and Sarah for Episode 8 of The Skies We’re Under.

This episode we are talking all about divorce. Continuing our theme of families, we have to cover things not working out the way we planned (as it so often does). The episode includes candid conversations about the complexities of family life, relationships, and how the challenges of parenting a disabled child can impact your relationship and perspective on life.

Lucy and Rachel talk to Sarah about her divorce, reflecting on the impact of separation, the resilience of children, and the importance of support systems. The conversation highlights the emotional journey of navigating family dynamics, the balance between personal needs and responsibilities, and the unexpected perks that can come from separation.
