Instead of a solo episode this week I wanted to share a conversation with Roly Starr, my wonderful boyfriend and 'bonus Dad' to Matilda.
Roly supports me to the nth degree, and TOTALLY gets my message about supporting Mums, parents and standing up for what matters.
Roly is THE most incredible man and supportive partner I've ever had the honour of being with. And to those who know we've separated twice in the past, it's wonderful having repaired to be where we are now, as in love and strong as ever.
To give you an idea of who supports me, and is part of my 'village', I wanted to introduce Roly to you.
Volume warning! at 34 minutes there is some loud laughter(!)
TRIGGER WARNING: at minutes in Roly shares his story of emotional and physical abuse.
In this episode we speak about:
- Roly's work in carpentry, fencing and other woodwork
- a bit about who he is, his interests and passion for good storytelling
- Pickle, the rescue dog and the intense challenges of having a reactive dog (for both him and me)
- grief for experiences we can learn to expect
- boundaries and the importance of autonomy for all ages (and beings)
- what Roly witnesses as a bonus parent and how vital it is to look after our needs for the benefit of our children
- the potential challenges of being a 'step-parent'
- beware of the volume at 34 minutes in — we have quite a giggle!!!
- the deep value of connecting with and listening to our body
- Roly's experience of abuse and escaping it
Themes: parenting, rescue dogs, domestic abuse, boundaries, mental health and fitness
Roly's work features in the film The Boy in the Shed. And here is the video we mention 37 minutes in.
At the end, I share a poem written by Nikita Gill.
