Parenthood: The Identity Shift

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

dimanche 26 juillet 2026 • Durée 25:55

In this episode of Shared Seasons, host Louise is joined by Kim Landouw, the CEO of Big Yellow Umbrella, a community organisation in Western Sydney dedicated to supporting vulnerable children and families. They dive deep into the often-unspoken transitions of parenthood, exploring how new parents frequently grieve their former identities, spontaneity, and freedom. Kim discusses the power of structured peer support through the Seasons for Growth program, which helps parents - especially those in rapidly developing areas who lack established networks - normalise their experiences, build confidence, and strengthen their sense of connection. The conversation highlights the importance of moving past the 'glorified' image of parenting to find authentic connection and resilience through every stage of life, from the first baby to the empty nest.

Men, Grief, and Safe Spaces

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

dimanche 26 juillet 2026 • Durée 36:54

In this episode of Shared Seasons, host Louise Hall explores the often-unspoken world of men’s grief and emotional transitions. Joining her is Father Joseph, a certified counsellor, Mission Australia chaplain, and pastoral care coordinator with extensive experience supporting men in homelessness, drug, and alcohol centres. Father Joseph shares powerful insights from facilitating Seasons for Growth groups, explaining why men often struggle to express feelings due to social stigmas like the pressure to 'toughen up'. The conversation also features trainers Benita and Juliane, who discuss the importance of grief literacy and peer support in navigating cumulative loss. Together, they discuss how creating non-judgmental, safe spaces can foster 'positive masculinity', allowing men to shed emotional loads and build authentic connections through shared vulnerability.

Navigating Life's Sudden Transitions Together

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

dimanche 26 juillet 2026 • Durée 47:27

In this premiere episode of Shared Seasons, host Louise Hall, Partnership Lead at MacKillop Seasons, explores the profound impact of grief literacy and suicide prevention in the diverse South Western Sydney region. Joining the conversation is Luisa Dematos, the Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Coordinator at South Western Sydney Primary Health Network (PHN), and Jeanie McDonnell, a veteran Seasons trainer.

The discussion delves into how loss extends far beyond bereavement to include identity, employment, and displacement. Luisa shares her expertise on "normalising" suicidality as a human response rather than a pathology, while Jeanie highlights how the Seasons for Growth program supports healing through a trauma-aware education process. Key insights include the "winter" metaphor for sitting with difficult feelings and the importance of compassionate inquiry in supporting loved ones through life's most challenging shifts.

(00:00:44) Introduction to the Seasons for Growth program

(00:02:02) Funding suicide prevention through a whole-of-system approach

(00:05:47) Understanding non-bereavement losses like identity and employment

(00:08:42) Reframing suicidality as a universal human experience

(00:14:15) The "Winter" metaphor: The power of sitting in darkness

(00:25:07) Unique cultural and individual responses to situational stressors

(00:34:24) Generosity: Inviting individuals to talk about great loss
