The news has been full of LVM, Kanye, Zuckerberg and Bezos chat this week, Vicki and Ollie talk through the week's events in Mallorca.
Also in this episode, Vicki sits down with holistic health practitioner and author Linda Ledwidge to talk about her life on Mallorca and her powerful new book Growing Through Grief — an anthology of deeply personal stories exploring the many faces of loss.
The conversation delves into what it means to move through grief rather than simply “get over” it, and how sharing our stories can help others feel seen, supported, and less alone. Linda speaks openly about her own experiences of loss — including the deaths of her father, sister, and mother — and how these moments inspired not only the book but her personal transformation.
This episode is not just about bereavement; it touches on identity, change, and the strength that can emerge from life’s most difficult moments. Whether listeners are navigating grief themselves, supporting someone who is, or are simply drawn to honest and human storytelling, this episode offers a compassionate and grounding space.
About the Book:
Growing Through Grief is a collection of reflections from fourteen different contributors, exploring grief in all its forms — from bereavement to the loss of relationships, health, identity, and life as we once knew it. Compiled by Linda Ledwidge, the anthology offers a tapestry of truth, resilience, and solidarity for anyone facing change or loss.
As Linda says:
“Grief isn’t something we get over. It’s something we grow through.”
The book is available now on Amazon and will be celebrated at a launch event in Mallorca.
