Dear Listener | Ira Blacker: A Letter About Family, Survival & Rock & Roll

jeudi 10 septembre 2026 • Durée 12:30

There are some stories that take a lifetime to tell.

In this episode of The Letterbox Podcast, Ira Blacker shares a deeply personal letter about his childhood, family, survival and the experiences that shaped the man he became.

Ira’s life would eventually take him into the heart of the rock and roll business. After beginning his career in the music industry in the 1960s, he co-founded American Talent International, one of the major rock and roll agencies of its time. His career brought him into the world of artists including Rod Stewart, The Eagles, ZZ Top, Deep Purple, Earth, Wind & Fire, KISS, Rush and Rory Gallagher, among many others.

But this letter takes us much further back — before the music industry, the famous names and the extraordinary career — to the childhood and family experiences that shaped Ira’s life.

It is an honest and deeply personal reflection on family, survival, resilience, and the things we carry with us long after we think we’ve left them behind.

Ira’s remarkable life in the music business is also explored in his memoir, Once A King, Now A Prince, a rock and roll memoir about family, survival and his extraordinary journey from childhood to the centre of rock and roll history.

A huge thank you to Ira for trusting The Letterbox Podcast with his story and his words. ❤️

Dear Mama | Letter 7: A Family’s NICU story

lundi 7 septembre 2026 • Durée 11:23

Dear Mama.

Our final letter in this NICU Awareness Month mini series is a letter to the mother who kept showing up.

To the mum who learnt the medications, the appointments and the language of the hospital. Who held her baby through blood draws, wires and procedures, while trying to keep some sense of normality for her other child. Who was told she was strong and resilient, when really, she was simply doing what her babies needed her to do.

It’s a letter about what happens when the immediate crisis is over, but the feelings haven’t gone anywhere. About the things you hold inside while you keep everyone else safe. And about remembering that you don’t have to be the strong one all the time.

Thank you to Katherine @drkatherinewrites for sharing these letters with us, and for all the time, thought and honesty she has put into making this series happen.

And thank you to everyone who has listened, shared and helped these stories reach the people who needed to hear them.

This mini series may be coming to an end, but NICU Awareness Month continues throughout September. There is support available for families going through a NICU experience.

And if you’re going through, or have been through, NICU, we want you to know: you are not alone.

If you have a letter you need to write, the Letterbox is open. Send yours to theletterboxpodcast@outlook.com. You can write anonymously, and your story might help someone else feel less alone.

Dear Medical Parents| Letter 6: A Family’s NICU Story & Tiny Tickers UK Blog Post

dimanche 6 septembre 2026 • Durée 21:21

To Medical Parents | NICU Awareness Week — Letter Six

For the sixth letter in our NICU Awareness Week series, Dr Katherine shares a letter to the parents living through the unimaginable: NICU and PICU parents, heart parents, and families whose children have been seriously ill.

Before sharing her original piece for Tiny Tickers, Katherine writes directly to other medical parents about fear, guilt, exhaustion, love, uncertainty and the complicated reality of feeling incredibly lucky and incredibly sad at the same time.

The letter that follows, From My Heart to Yours: Nobody Prepared Us For This, was originally written for Tiny Tickers and reflects on the emotional impact of congenital heart disease, life in hospital, siblings, relationships, survival mode and what happens after the medical crisis.

Thank you to Tiny Tickers for allowing us to share Katherine’s blog as part of this series. Tiny Tickers supports babies with serious heart conditions and their families across the UK. (Tiny Tickers)

Written and read by @drkatherinewrites.

If this letter resonates with you, share it with another NICU, PICU or heart parent who might need to hear that they are not alone.

Dear Nurses| Letter 5: A Family’s NICU story

samedi 5 septembre 2026 • Durée 08:59

When you can’t hold your own baby, sometimes the people caring for them become the people who make it possible for you to step away, breathe, eat and sleep.

In the fifth letter of The Letterbox Podcast’s NICU Awareness Month series, @drkatherinewrites writes a heartfelt thank you to Susie, the PICU nurses and all the healthcare staff who cared for her daughter through an incredibly difficult time.

Although this is Katherine’s story, the gratitude in this letter will be familiar to so many people who have relied on healthcare workers to care for them, their children, their parents, their partners or someone they love.

So this one is also a thank you to all healthcare workers. For the big things, the tiny things, and the care you give that families and patients may carry with them for years.

Because sometimes the things we never got to say are the things worth saying.

Dear Husband | Letter 3: A Family’s NICU story

jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 07:08

In the third letter of our NICU Awareness Month mini-series, Katherine (@drkatherwrites) writes to her husband about the experience of watching their daughter spend time in NICU with a congenital heart condition.

She writes about the fear of seeing your tiny baby so unwell, the impact of medical trauma on a family, and the way an experience neither parent could have imagined changed their marriage.

But most of all, this is a letter of gratitude — to the person beside you when everything feels frightening and uncertain. To the husband who became a teammate, a source of strength and an unwavering support for their children and for Katherine.

Katherine is a Clinical Psychologist, writer and mum, bringing both professional insight and lived experience to her writing about medical parenting.

A letter about NICU, congenital heart disease, parenthood, marriage, medical trauma and the love that carries families through difficult times.

A Letter To Our Darling Son | Letter 2: A Family’s NICU Story

mercredi 2 septembre 2026 • Durée 10:04

In the second letter of The Letterbox Podcast’s seven-part NICU Awareness Month series, Katherine writes to her firstborn son.

He was just two and a half when his baby sister was born and unexpectedly became seriously ill. Instead of the arrival they had carefully planned, Katherine and her husband found themselves spending weeks in hospital, while their little boy was cared for at home, mostly by his grandparents.

This is a letter about the siblings who are sometimes left on the outside when a baby needs intensive medical care. About the guilt of missing milestone moments, the worry that he might feel forgotten, and the impossible reality of trying to be in two places at once.

But most of all, it is a letter to make sure her son knows that he was never second.

Katherine reflects on the eight weeks she missed of his childhood, including one seemingly ordinary afternoon splashing in puddles — and how much that ordinary half hour meant after being away from him for so long.

Written by Katherine — @drkatherinewrites

This is the second of seven letters sharing one family’s experience of NICU and serious childhood illness.

To My Baby | Letter 1: A Family’s NICU Story

mardi 1 septembre 2026 • Durée 11:58

September is NICU Awareness Month, and over the next seven days, The Letterbox Podcast is sharing seven letters from one family’s experience of neonatal care.

This first letter is written by Katherine, an NHS and private practice Clinical Psychologist, writer and mum of two, to her daughter — her baby.

Her daughter was diagnosed with serious congenital heart disease just hours after her emergency birth. She had stopped growing during pregnancy, was born at a low birth weight and required significant support after birth, before being readmitted to a High Dependency Unit at just two weeks old.

Through seven letters, Katherine reflects on the people, experiences and emotions that shaped her family’s journey through NICU and hospital care.

This first letter is to the person at the heart of it all: her daughter.

Written by Katherine — @drkatherinewrites

Listen to the next letter tomorrow, and follow The Letterbox Podcast so you don’t miss the rest of this seven-part NICU series.

To The Women It Almost Was

jeudi 27 août 2026 • Durée 04:37

In this episode, Abigail Anne writes to Jackie — the girl who made her believe that perhaps she had found the kind of love she had been looking for- only to realise that she would never be loved the way she wanted.

Now, Abigail is with a woman who loves her openly and gives her the things she once wanted from Jackie. But driving past an old street, hearing a song, or remembering the smallest details can still bring it all back.

Thank you to Abigail for sharing this beautiful letter with The Letterbox Podcast. 💌

You can find Abigail on Instagram at @abigail.anne.poetry.

Dear Ali | A Nostalgic Letter About Teenage Freedom

jeudi 20 août 2026 • Durée 04:54

In this short but beautifully nostalgic letter, ThePeculiarPoet looks back on being 17, sneaking into a music festival with friends and experiencing the kind of carefree teenage freedom that feels endless when you’re young.

Through memories of neon lights, glowsticks, music drifting through the woods and nights that seemed to exist outside the real world, this letter captures a feeling many of us recognise — looking back on a moment in our youth and wishing we could experience that freedom just one more time.

A reminder that not every letter needs to be long, profound or life-changing. Sometimes a letter can simply hold onto a memory, a feeling or a moment you don’t want to forget.

And that’s exactly what The Letterbox Podcast is for. Any letter is welcome.

💌 If you have a letter you’d like to share, send it to theletterboxpodcast@outlook.com.
