Comedian and TV presenter Geoff Norcott speaks candidly about the stillbirth of his daughter Connie. An important listen for anyone dealing with any kind of loss, especially men who might be struggling. **This is an episode to listen to when you are confident you won't be triggered** Geoff decided to open up about losing Connie to try to help himself with his grieving process, but also to try to help other men trying to navigate loss and battling mental health issues. He speaks to me about him and his wife Emma losing Connie at 34 weeks pregnant, about how grief often remains unspoken and unconfronted for men, and about how his family remember Connie. Geoff has a refreshing, distinct way of tapping into men's psyche and making the issues around male grief and men's mental health more accessible. We also discuss the fertility taboo that remains in society and how we could all handle conversations differently.
