Manage episode 305801063 series 2802843
There is a beautiful African proverb: 'It takes a village to raise a child.' Our African ancestors recognised that parenting is a shared responsibility - a communal affair - not just the concern of parents. But what happens when you don't have that village and you feel like you're drowning? After the devastating suicide of single mother, Livi Jay, we are discussing the importance of mothers' mental health, episode 26 is deep, heavy and thought provoking.
