Interview: Kay Crewdson - The Juggle Is Real
In episode 4, Claire talks to Kay Crewdson - freelance reporter, BBC weatherperson, trustee for Cradle and mum.
Claire and Kay first bonded over sharing a breastpump at a conference, but found out they'd actually gone to school together - with zero recollection.
In this candid chat they cover:
Why when Kay got the call from the BBC 9 weeks post partum, she couldn't say no
The logistics that go into getting her on telly at an unholy hour, with 2 small children at home
How a Code Brown on a train led to her producing Newsround
How her own experience led to her speaking out to normalise the conversation around miscarriage, as well as creating the multi-awardwinning documentary 'The Emptiness within', plus becoming trustee of Cradle (a charity with helps support women through miscarriage)
Her advice to women who are feeling stagnant and dissatisfied with life
Just a heads up, Claire and Kay discuss some sensitive topics in this conversation, around baby loss.
