I just think that we, if we don't talk about ourselves as a work in progress enough and like if we ever give each other the impression that anyone can be fixed and have it sorted once and through them, we're doing great harm. The journey is the point. It's not like, Oh, yeah, done that. And now I know everything, you know, I don't even want to get it sorted. Can you imagine how boring it would be if you had it sorted? We carry on's kind of cycling through change. Every time we cut it's a spiral rather than a circle. So we move up a little bit maybe... But it's never going to start
Welcome to the Wintering Sessions with Katherine May.
While we take a rest over the summer, we’re sharing some remastered episodes from Season One, chosen by listeners.
In this episode, I speak to journalist and broadcaster Remona Aly about her life-changing decision to call off an engagement, and how it echoed through the years to teach her about forgiveness, faith and empathy.
This is such a special one for me - I went to school with Remona, and I think you can hear our joy at reconnecting after a couple of decades, and feeling so at home in the process. We cover all of human life here: buckle in.
We talked about:
- Finding the sacred in everyday life
- How grief changes you
- The need for community
- Breaking off an engagement and family shame
