There is a gap nobody talks about.Not the gap between who you were and who you are becoming. Not the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I mean the one that opens up inside you when something ends. When someone leaves. When you leave. When a version of life you had quietly counted on quietly disappears.Grief is not always loud. Sometimes it doesn't announce itself at all. It just sits there -in the pause between one thought and the next. In the moment you reach for your phone to tell someone something, and then remember. On a Sunday afternoon, that used to mean something and now just means quiet.We were never really taught how to grieve. We were taught how to recover. How to bounce back. How to find the silver lining, the lesson, the growth. And all of that can be true - and also, sometimes something just needs to be mourned. Without the lesson. Without the reframe. Without being made useful.I wrote Mind the Gap in one of those spaces. The in-between place. Not in the acute pain of something ending but in the strange, quiet aftermath of the unknown space. When the world had moved on, and I hadn't quite. When I was expected to be fine, and something in me was still sitting with the loss, wondering why no one had named it yet.Grief is not just for death. It is for the relationship that ended. The friendship that quietly dissolved. The version of yourself you had to let go of to become who you are now. The career that didn't work out. The city you left. The future you had mapped in your head that never came to be.All of that deserves to be grieved. You are allowed to sit in the gap. You are allowed to not be over it yet. You are allowed to feel the weight of what was, even as you choose what comes next.The gap is not a sign you are stuck. It is a sign you love something. That it matters or mattered. That you were present enough to feel the loss of it.And in my experience, the only way out of the gap is through it. Not around it. Not above it. Not by filling it with noise and motion until it goes quiet. Through it. Sitting with it. Writing it down. Saying out loud - this hurt, and it mattered, and I am still here.That is what this poem is. A companion for the gap. Something to sit with you in the in-between.If this landed somewhere real in you, I want you to know you are not alone in the gap.And if you are feeling stuck in a way that goes beyond grief, if you have been waiting to find your way back to yourself for a while now, I have been building something for exactly that.30 Days to Unstuck is a daily audio series. Five minutes each morning. Thirty days. This is for the person who knows they are meant for more and just needs to find their way back.It is not a productivity programme. It is not about doing more. It is about remembering who you are underneath everything that got layered on top.The full series drops soon. Join the waitlist at 30 Days To Unstuck.

Today's poem is Poem to Watch over You by Omotara James. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, guest host Diannely Antigua writes… “On Juneteenth, freedom feels like a welcome long denied. It is also a welcome we must keep making possible for each other every day. Not only in law, but in practice. Freedom should be both a declaration and a way of living. Today's poem imagines that kind of welcome. It speaks to that miracle of arrival, to a life entering the world without needing justification. It reminds us that before the world teaches us otherwise, there is the simple and sacred fact of being received.”This show is supported by gifts from listeners.

Every part of your life has a rhythm, and your finances are no exception. On today's episode, “Just Like a Well‑Written Poem, Your Financial Life Has Its Own Rhythm," host Jacquette continues her exploration of the parallels between poetry and money. She shows how the same tools (meter, repetition, and pacing) poets use to shape meaning also show up in your money life. Your savings, investments, spending, earnings, pricing, etc., create a pattern...a beat. The real power lies in deciding whether that pattern is intentional or unrecognized and unwanted.Want More?

Hello to you listening in Flushing, Queens, New York! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. Maybe like me you stop and wonder: who am I right now, how do I describe myself, what nourishes me?  It's scary, isn't it, not to have the answers. Perhaps there is great wisdom in resting there, not resisting, not pushing back, but trusting that the answer will come in due time. The poet Derek Walcott knows that while we may have forgotten who we are, who we are has not forgotten us. His poem, Love After Love, suggests a great joy in coming face-to-face with the one who knows us by heart:   Love After Love “The time will come when, with elation you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror and each will smile at the other's welcome, and say, sit here. Eat. You will love again the stranger who was your self. Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life, whom you ignored for another, who knows you by heart. Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, the photographs, the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror. Sit. Feast on your life.” [- by Derek Walcott] And thank you, for listening. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us! You will have wonderful company as we continue to walk our lives together.

Loss sits at the crux of grief and growth. In her brilliant debut book of poetry, Splashed Things, Leigh Lucas charts a path through this crossroad with lyrical imagery both savage and excruciatingly tender. Hear her read selections from the book and talk about its development as she claims her own grief at the loss of a cherished one. Splashed Things was selected by Maya C. Popa for the A. Poulin Jr. Prize from Boa Editions. Leigh's chapbook, Landsickness (Tupelo Press, 2024) was selected by Chen Chen for the 2023 Sunken Garden Poetry chapbook Award. Her writing has appeared in Academy of American Poets' Poem-a-Day, Adroit, Poetry Society of American, and elsewhere.

Send us Fan Mail“Father” and “dad” sound like the same word until you live the difference. We take a moment for Father's Day and share a poem that asks a question many moms carry quietly: is he a father on paper, or a dad in your child's real life? Because the gap isn't about pride or labels. It shows up in the stories kids tell, the way they handle relationships, and the emotional weight they drag into adulthood.We talk co-parenting with purpose when feelings are raw: creating simple co-parenting rules, refusing to be cruel, and learning conflict resolution that actually teaches your child something healthy. I also speak straight about what not to do, especially when you're hurt or angry: don't use name-calling and don't tear him down in front of the kids, even if what you're saying feels true. That kind of language can invite anger and depression in children, and that's a price they shouldn't have to pay for adult conflict.We also make room for the complicated realities many families face, from an ex who is inconsistent to a parent with a past, and even dads who are no longer here. The focus stays on what your child needs now: honesty without bitterness, boundaries without chaos, and the steady reminder that titles fade but impact lasts. If you're parenting as a single mom, navigating a blended family, or trying to build healthier co-parenting communication, this conversation is for you.Subscribe to Mom to Mentor, share this with another parent, and leave a review or a comment with your biggest takeaway: what does “presence over perfection” look like in your home?https://singlemomsunitedpodcast.com/As Mom's we are more than nurturers we are Mentors to our children.

This week, two debut authors received the Women's Prize for Fiction and Non-Fiction, each worth £30,000, respectively. Anita Rani spoke to the two winners, novelist Virginia Evans and Lyse Doucet, known to listeners as the BBC's Chief International Correspondent.The Women's T20 Cricket World Cup has begun. Nuala McGovern talked to Clare Connor, former England women's captain, now the outgoing Managing Director of England Women. Over her 18 years in the job, Clare has overseen the professionalisation of the women's game as well as a big boost in grassroots participation.The government has announced how it is planning to roll out quicker and easier access to educational psychologists, speech and language therapists, and occupational therapists for SEND families. Nuala spoke to the Schools Minister Georgia Gould and Principal Educational Psychologist for Salford, Claire Jackson, about the upcoming Experts at Hand programme.Last week, Hannah Murray, who played Gilly in Game of Thrones, told Anita that during the final season of the show, the papers wrote she was pregnant - when she wasn't. Hannah said that maybe this was the only acceptable way for a woman in the public eye to gain weight. Following a strong listener response, we discussed if there is a right way to talk about women's weight. Anita was joined by Alex Light, a body confidence activist and author and Dr Dolly Van Tulleken, food policy researcher, policy consultant and visiting researcher at the MRC epidemiologist unit in Cambridge University.Have you ever had one of those moments when life feels so circular that you just can't believe it? A 'once-in-a-lifetime synchronicity' is what the poet Emily Cullen called it when she discovered that a poem she had written seven years ago, inspired by her eight year old son, turned up on the English exam paper he was sitting in Ireland. Anita caught up with Emily and son Lee.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Annette Wells

Stephen Ogilvie is in hospital with serious wounds after the attack, and a 30-year-old Sudanese man has been charged with attempted murder.

The boys discuss that plus the racing in all three classes as well as the important stuff: The Simone Flatterson Grid Girl Critique and Man Boob Care (a particular highlight this week) Borrie's Poem, Jack's update and we hear from Dear George and Jake 'Massive' Dixon as well.
