    Mental Wellness at Christmas

    As we approach the end of the year, we find ourselves in our final episode, just days away from Christmas. This festive season is often filled with gatherings, laughter, and indulgence in food and drink with loved ones. Yet, for some, Christmas can bring about feelings of loneliness, especially for those facing challenging family situations. It's a time when many reflect on the past and ponder the future. We likely know someone who may be struggling during this season, and today, we will focus on the importance of supporting one another during Christmas and how to navigate the heavier emotional burdens that may arise. Joining us for this important conversation are rural life coach Jo Speed, first-generation dairy farmer Lucia Slack from Cumbria, podcast producer Becki Reay, and the ever-insightful dairy market analyst Chris Walkland.
