024 Be Brave with Sarah Oakley and Lucy Burgess

In this episode Bravebirds Sarah Oakley and Lucy Burgess both talk about challenges they have faced and why in both cases they felt very much unheard. We discuss Sarah’s shock at having to become a carer for her husband and son and how she has dealt with it.  We also talk about Lucy’ insanely hard decision to take her son and leave her daughter behind and how they are now both able to speak out and be brave!

“And my situation's not different to anyone else's situation. We all have times where we need to find that courage for one reason or another because you have to find your way out. But yeah, sometimes we don't see that. It's not in public, it's in private, right. So that's why I think this podcast is so good “cause people say, ‘well, that actually happened to me’. 

And it’s ‘cause I think often the other thing about hard times is you feel ashamed. You feel embarrassed. Like for me, I felt embarrassed that I wasn't coping with it. Like, I've got a background in kind of psychological coaching wellbeing, working with top companies, helping them improve their performance, right but in my personal home situation, I felt like I was failing, you know?”
