Show Notes

We are back with an absolute banger! We are so glad to have finally found time to sit down (in Sydney!!) with our lovely pal Tiff. Tiff's Dad died only 9 months ago; the plot twist to Tiff's story is that she never saw and didn't have a relationship with her Dad. It's been a rollercoaster ride of emotions for Tiff, from not feeling like she deserved to say she's in the DPC, to turning to Google to see how she should feel. “I just felt like there was no one else on this entire planet who knew what I was going through.” This is a gorgeous conversation, after months of counselling and talking to friends, family & lecturers, Tiff speaks so eloquently about her experience. From the girl that had never met her dad and was choosing not to meet him, to suddenly becoming the girl who would never meet her Dad. We talk about navigating this emotional minefield and she gives some amazing advice, including this fav quote of ours: "You’re just as entitled as everyone else to feel some sort of grief". This is a gorjy, warming and funny episode - thanks so much for chatting to us Tiff!
