Hey Guys, welcome to this week’s episode with Finty Hunter! Her Dad, Doug, died during a pivotal time in her life when you’re really figuring out who you are.

She talks about how she found comfort in writing about her grief in the form of articles and plays, including a play she wrote and played at Edinburgh Fringe. How we feel defined by the bad experiences that happen to us and how she missed being able to tell her Dad one of the biggest parts of her life and her identity that he never got to see, understand or know.

I hope you enjoy the ep!
