Ep 54 - Leonie Charlton - Writer and Poet talks about grief

Warning: just over 30 minutes into the podcast we briefly mention a suicide and miscarriage in passing.

What can we learn from the animal world about resilience? Where do rituals fit in with grief and resilience? 

Leonie Charlton is a writer, and is passionate about our relationship as the human animal with the rest of the natural world. She is author of Marram, a travel memoir of a trip riding with Highland Ponies through the Outer Hebrides, and a poetry pamphlet Ten Minutes of Weather Away.

She is currently doing a Ph.D through the University of the Highlands and Islands looking at Scotland’s ‘deer question’, and aims to give voice, as best she can, to the many parties involved, including the more-than-human, through creative writing.
