Podcasts about my wild

Last of my trips back into The Shift archives is this conversation with Clover Stroud. Since this conversation, Clover has written another memoir, The Giant on the Skyline about our relationship with home (borne in part out of moving her family from her home in Oxfordshire to Washington DC where her partner's job is based). Since then A LOT has changed. She has also launched an excellent substack, On The Way Life Feels. The original show notes: It takes courage to lay yourself bare on the page the way today's guest does. Journalist Clover Stroud has written three memoirs - The Wild Other, My Wild and Sleepless Nights and, now, The Red of My Blood. Each more visceral, more exposing, than the last. But then Clover has lived no ordinary life (whatever that is). Hers features adventure, divorce, trauma, lots of sex, depression and five kids aged between 21 and 5. But before that, when Clover was 16, her mother suffered a catastrophic fall from a horse which left her permanently brain damaged. A state in which she remained until her death 22 years later. Then, two years ago her sister Nell Gifford, to whom Clover was exceptionally close, died of breast cancer, aged 46.  The darkness that descended in the wake of Nell's death informed The Red of My Blood - an emotional read about living with and learning from grief. Clover joins me from her bedroom in Oxfordshire (excellent wallpaper!) to talk - extremely candidly, so please brace yourself if you're feeling vulnerable - about grief and trauma, bearing the unbearable and how, out of loss, she's finding a new person to be. But It's not all sadness. We also discussed midlife sex, sobriety, looking forward to menopause and why we're bloody lucky to be middle-aged. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including The Giant on the Skyline and The Red of My Blood by Clover Stroud as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Clover Stroud, the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Red of My Blood: A Death and Life Story, where she writes about her experience of walking through the first year after her sister's death from breast cancer. In the episode, Clover speaks movingly about the horse-riding accident that left her mother severely disabled when Clover was a teenager, and how that experience changed her family life and her relationship with her sister Nell. She talks about the death of both her mother and Nell, relating it to family food memories of home-cooked lasagne, roll-mop herrings and fish chowder. Finally, we also talk about Dame Deborah James and why it's important to encourage healthy conversation around death.About Clover Stroud:Clover Stroud is a writer and journalist whose work features regularly in the Sunday Times, the Guardian and the Saturday and Sunday Telegraph, among others.

Clover Stroud is a journalist and the award-nominated author of books including the Sunday Times bestselling My Wild and Sleepless Nights. In The Red of My Blood, she recalls how her sister Nell Gifford, founder of Gifford's circus, died of breast cancer at just 46. Days before, Nell had been given years to live. This raw, lyrical and ultimately hopeful memoir examines how death, once embraced, can exist alongside us, and even enrich our daily lives.

My guest today is writer and journalist Clover Stroud. I adore her writing and outlook on the world. Her first book, The Wild Other, was shortlisted for The Wainwright Prize. Her second book, My Wild & Sleepless Nights: A Mother's Story was rated one of the 'best books of the year, 2020' by the Observer and the Telegraph and was a Sunday Times bestseller. And her third memoir The Red Of My Blood might just be my favourite of them all. In this book, Clover is looking at life, death and grief. She is asking the question: can death bring something good to my life? A few weeks before Christmas, Clover's sister died of breast cancer, aged forty-six. Her sudden death broke Clover's life into pieces. The Red of My Blood charts Clover's surreal and fearless journey through the first year after her sister's death. This is a really special book and really recommend you pick up a copy.

Clover Stroud is a Sunday Times best selling author of a number of books including The Wild Other and My Wild and Sleepless Nights. Her latest book, The Red of My Blood, is the story of her sister Nell's death and the immediate aftermath. Clover talks about how her writing benefits from the immediacy of writing in real time and how it felt natural for her to write about the extremities of grief when she was deep in its throws. We also talk about taking yourself to the edge creatively and how it makes life more vivid and putting a magnifying glass up to human experience as well as some of the positive aspects of social media. Clover also has some excellent reading advice for writers.

Unschooling means 'parents allowing their children as much freedom to explore the world as they can comfortably bear.' (John Holt) In this episode I talk to Jan and her adult daughter Eloise who were part of my unschooling community twenty years ago. Jan describes the fears and joys she felt when she took her oldest two out of school and unschooled her five children right through to adulthood. Eloise pays testament to her happy, carefree, self-directed childhood and talks about how unschooling impacts on her own parenting philosophy as a single mum of five year old Odetta. She discusses how it was for her to go to college at 16 and how her life progressed as an adult. Jan's central piece of advice to unschooling parents is: 'Relax, you're doing the best you can.' Eloise concludes that the best advice she could give any families embarking on home education is 'There is no one standard they need to be. They are entirely themselves and the world needs more entirely themselves people.' Please email me if you have any questions, comments or would like any kind of support. I'm Jackie at: unschooling.LWR@gmail.com. My heartfelt thanks go to my daughter Nell for producing this podcast series.

In her memoir, "My Wild and Precious Life," Susanne Rheault shares her inspiring story of working in rural Africa running AIDS prevention programs and helping to transform a two room orphanage in Tanzania into a home, school and organic farm for 350 children called Precious Project. After experiencing side effects from cancer treatment that affected her skin and brows, chiropractic medicine and wellness specialist, Dr. Doris Dalton, developed a natural skin care and makeup line called DOLL 10.This show is broadcast live on Wednesday's at 12PM ET on W4WN Radio – The Women 4 Women Network (www.w4wn.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (http://www.talk4radio.com/) on the Talk 4 Media Network (http://www.talk4media.com/).

Susie Rheault brings her new book "My Wild and Precious Life: A Memoir of Africa" to us to share a compelling story of finding our life purpose. And sometimes when we have that idea in mind, we might happen to stumble on it, or it simply comes to us. Susie "stumbled" on an orphanage in Tanzania in 2011. She and her husband were seeking for a meaning work, and in 2 small concrete buildings housing 9 AIDS/HIV positive children, they found what they were looking for. While we search for our purpose, or perhaps in addition to it, we may find ourselves drawn to supporting the work of the Precious Project. While it continues as an orphanage, a key part of the work is education, and currently the elementary school has 350 students. And the focus is to build a secondary school. This is highly important work in the world, and is making a huge difference in these children's lives, the leaders of tomorrow. www.preciousproject.org
