The Skies We’re Under – Details, episodes & analysis

Join Rachel for our fourth and final 'Raincheck' of the Summer Holidays. While you wait for new content, here is a short extract from earlier episodes to tide you over. 

This week, we have another short reflection on trust. Trust isn’t just an external experience with others but also an internal relationship with ourselves. This short rain check replays a couple of key conversations we’ve had about trust and how it has been warped and reshaped by our experiences as parent carers.

Extracts From:

• Season 3 Episode 3 and
• Season 1 Episode 17

We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.

Join Rachel for our third 'Raincheck' of the Summer.

While you wait for new content, here is a short extract from earlier episodes to tide you over. 

This week is all about trust.

Rachel didn’t realise how important trust played in professional relationships until she transitioned from one end of the bed, as a healthcare professional, to the other, as a parent of someone with complex medical needs. The difference it makes is like taking a deep breath. 

Extracts are From:

• Season 1 Episode 14 
• Season 1 Episode 17 and
• Season 1 Episode 18

It is not long until we get the chance to vote in the general election and this week on the podcast we chat about how we might be able to raise our collective voices with Rina and Lauren from the brilliant F**king Normal Podcast.    They imagine what they’d like to say to the powers that be, how invisible the lives of disabled people are, and the need for accessible child care for working parents (especially mothers who still carry the majority of the mental load).   We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.
