    Sarah Mc Ginn: The Person You Were With Them

    This episode looks at the version of you that disappears when someone you love dies. The humour, confidence, or calm they brought out in you - gone with them, at least for a while. It’s about who we were in their presence, and how to reconnect with that person again, even after they’re gone.
