    EP 1: Clare Milford Haven
    Aug 19 2025

    Clare Milford-Haven is many things to many people. She leads by example and her commitment, tenacity and enthusiasm have seen her excel in different fields. In my humble opinion, her greatest achievement to date has been co-founding a charity that helps prevent male suicide - James' Place. With centres in London, Liverpool, Newcastle and soon in Birmingham, Clare has a vision to provide help, support and professionalism to men in crisis.

    I met Clare several years ago and our friendship fills me with hope and inspiration. For this episode, we meet in her home in the South Downs and set up the recording equipment in her office.

    EP 2: Teddie Cooper
    Aug 26 2025

    Teddie Cooper is the daughter of one of my great friends in Dorset. Through family holidays and get-togethers, Teddie and I have spoken a great deal and over time, as we took each other into our respective confidences, we realised how our healing journeys have many similarities. When I was chatting with Teddie about LIFE IS A LABYRINTH, she looked at me and said, "I want to be a guest". I asked her if she was sure. "Are you sure you're ready." She was ready. She is ready. She is walking into her new future after many years of crippling trauma. I couldn't be prouder of her and I am thrilled to be able to share our conversation with you all.


    We met in Dorset and set the recording equipment up in the dining room. I asked her to walk the labyrinth just before. We made tea. I lit a candle and then facing each other across the dining table, we pressed RECORD.
