  • Ruby Wax on how she learnt to use comedy as a way to bear the unbearable

    Ruby Wax on how she learnt to use comedy as a way to bear the unbearable
    10 May 2023
    As most of you will know Ruby Wax is a comedian, actor and author as well as a mental health campaigner. Our conversation was particularly powerful because we got under the hood of the performer Ruby, and gained insight into who she really is, and how she got to be who she is. In listening to her honesty you will connect with yourself and recognise some of the influences that led you, the listener, to be you. We discussed complex issues like: What led Ruby to be ‘not as well as [she] thought [she] was’ and her breakdown after 12 years of being stable. Why her experience of depression was like a ‘holocaust inside’. How we navigate together the difficult line of describing her experience without triggering her to drop back into it. The power of comedy as a defence and as a way to bear the unbearable We discuss the roots of Ruby’s depression and how it stemmed from the abuse and terror of her childhood and how that terror lives on and plays out in our daily life, even if managed. For Ruby being at home is a place of threat and how she feels ’trapped’ when locked inside her house for too long. You need to listen to this episode if you want to understand depression, yourself and what can help you.

  • Julia Samuel sits in the therapy chair and shares the challenges she has faced

    Julia Samuel sits in the therapy chair and shares the challenges she has faced
    3 May 2023
    Welcome back to Season 3 of Therapy Works! To mark the publication of the paperback of my book Every Family Has a Story, we decided to do a role reversal and I invited the fantastic comedian and podcaster Cariad Loyd to put me in the therapy chair. Can I just say being interviewed is not my happy place! Although I did love this conversation, as I ended up being very open, I laughed, cried and said things I have never said publicly before. The topics we covered: We discussed my mother being an alcoholic and how that led to me becoming a psychotherapist. The complexity of our relationships, that people often want to label them as good or bad, and how relationships are full of contradictions: love, hate, fury, gratitude, compassion How I changed through my training as a therapist, and the moment I allowed myself to surrender to the profound love I felt for my children. How I wanted to 'love my children into being' as opposed to love being like work at times. My ambivalent relationship with attention – wanting it and feeling ashamed for wanting it. Emily and Sophie touch on the importance of stories in families and how helpful it has been hearing me share these experiences. If you want to know me better, and hear how I see myself, my children and my attitude towards my work then you will hear it all in this episode. This is terrifying for me to release. Just saying… but I hope you all enjoy!

  • Zoe Blaskey on navigating the huge challenges of motherhood

    Zoe Blaskey on navigating the huge challenges of motherhood
    5 Apr 2023
    For those of you who don’t know Zoe Blaskey, she is the founder of Motherland, the host of the brilliant podcast of the same name and a transformational coach. For those that do know her I think you will be delighted by this open and honest conversation, from which I learned so much. Zoe is a mother of two and openly speaks about learning to lean into what she was struggling with, which was every aspect of motherhood. This conversation is full of nuggets of wisdom and simply a joy to listen to – in it we discuss: How to deal with big emotions - we might be brought up to believe we are ‘too much’ and block our emotions through many negative behaviours, but over time we can train ourselves to respond differently, by allowing them and even validating them. How change takes a huge amount of learning – whether it’s books, workshops, therapy and podcasts. Whilst the process can take longer than we want or choose. The emotional load of motherhood and what can protect us from burn out. The division of labour between two parents – how old systems can get played out unconsciously and now there is a NEW way – through the book Fair Play (see below for link). The power and gift of handwritten letters that we send or even write but don’t send. When we look at transgenerational patterns it opens up our understanding and compassion for our parents and grandparents. It has the ability to change our outlook and increases our level of appreciation towards them. This is an episode that I think you can go back and revisit time and time again, you will see yourself in it, your children, your parents, siblings and partner. It will provide you with a new way of seeing yourself and others which might be empowering or a relief.

Loved this podcast episode. Mr. Grant's positivity is inspirational and Mrs Samuel's warmth comes to the fore.

What a lovely positive message!

My nan used to love the Trisha Show used to sit and watch it with her.

Think seeing the show made her feel less alone in the abusive chaotic intergenerational trauma which she was powerless to stop. She finally could see herself and the family dynamics on the screen in front of her.



Inspiring and Truthful
