Trigger Warning: We do discuss fertility, baby loss and miscarriage in this episode. Feel free to skip it and listen to some of our other episodes, we more than understand. Harriet & Rebecca
In this episode, we talk about the fact that our business public relations, marketing and corporate communication is a people business. Working with people and understanding how to manage relationships is a core part of what we do. Knowing how to do that well can only be a good thing.
Our guest this week, is Emma Gilmartin, Head of Social Media & Student Comms at the University of Glasgow. We start by talking to Emma about her podcast, Hopes & Dreams Podcast which she started after experiencing baby loss and her own journey with fertility and wanted to use her skills as a communicator to create something to help others. With many large organisations and agencies introducing leave policies for staff who experience a baby loss such as John Lewis and Channel 4 we ask what needs to happen next.
