I'm back podcasting and I'm back talking with Jules Kelly, who recorded an episode with me last year about losing her daughter Chloe. A year on, in Baby Loss Awareness Week, Jules reflects on the past year, which has, tragically, been filled with further unimaginable grief and loss. But this episode is, strangely, filled with laughter and very dark humour - while some might find it a welcome break from traditional discussions about grief, others might find it a difficult, so please handle yourself with care. This episode contains references to baby loss and suicide. All my love to Jules and Ed xxx

I decided to actually share some of my old bits of writing - including a disjointed monologue on gambling in a casino at 4pm, and my life in headscarves!

I'm tired, and didn't have time to properly edit this week's episode, so I'm pushing that back to Wednesday 23rd November (podcasts will switch to Wednesdays), and in the meantime I'm just pondering things again.

I've had a busy week so this is just a sleepy, nonsensical stream of consciousness, where I touch on the idea of performing our personalities and why unfinished creative projects haunt me!

This episode deals with baby loss and grief.
My beautiful friend Jules Kelly talks openly about losing her daughter Chloe. Jules asked me to release this episode to time with Baby Loss Awareness Week (9th-15th October), in the hope that it will help raise awareness of the issues surrounding baby loss, and even provide some form of comfort and healing to bereaved parents, or those trying to support friends and family.
In this episode, Jules talks about her inspirational friend Charlotte, who's currently raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity. Charlotte and her husband Alan have already raised over £20,000. You can support their fundraising efforts in their daughter Margot's memory here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/margot-bennett
Please be aware that this episode goes into detail about medical issues and stillbirth, and Jules talks extremely honestly about the days leading up to Chloe's birth, so please take care while listening.
All my love to Jules and Ed xxx

Actor and writer Jess Impiazzi talks to me about caring for her father in his last days and how - despite their previously fractured relationship - she was able to dig deep to show him the love he'd not been able to show himself. The interview starts at 13 minutes, so jump straight there if you want to avoid Hajar's opening chat.

This week I'm joined by my good friend Amanda Keeling who talks to me all about polyamory and how her choice to practise it has helped her deepen her understanding of herself and her relationships. We talk a bit about sex (and how it's not all about sex), handling jealousy and insecurity, and blaming our mothers...
Enjoy!

I went to Edinburgh for the final week of the Fringe and came back with a decent clutch of interviews from some top comedians, who were wonderfully open and honest about their Fringe experiences, from their feelings about their own shows to their opinions on how the festival needs to improve.
Huge thanks to Sikisa, Amy Annette, James Barr, Davina Bentley, Tessa Coates, Christof Epaminondas, Victoria Melody and Georgia Thorp.

And we're off... not the episode I intended to put out today but I thought I'd kick this off with a rambling monologue. I touch on whether there's any point arguing about the Queen, feeling a bit down today, and pondering the void that religion left in my life.
