Baby loss certificates, 'Women's intuition', Carolynne Hunter & energy bills
Update on women's experiences of receiving baby loss certificates, author Rose Hackman on 'Women's intuition', and an update with Carolynne Hunter after Kate Winslet paid her energy bill.
On 27 February, Emma Barnett spoke to Zoe Clark-Coates, who runs the baby loss and bereavement charity The Mariposa Trust, about her campaign for baby loss certificates. They were introduced in England in February for parents who鈥檝e lost a baby before 24 weeks of pregnancy. Emma shares her own story and also speaks to a woman who鈥檚 decided it鈥檚 not for her, and another who applied straight away and has now received four baby loss certificates.
Have you ever had a nagging feeling that something wasn鈥檛 quite right? A gut reaction or a tingly spidey-like sense that tells you something is off? Author of Emotional Labour, Rose Hackman joins Emma to explain why we need to stop calling it 'women鈥檚 intuition'.
Carolynne Hunter cares for her 14-year-old daughter who has severe cerebral palsy. She spoke out about her rising household costs back in 2022 and Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet paid her energy bill. Carolynne joins Emma to give an update on her life since then.
It's been announced that a breast cancer drug - Pembrolizumab, sold under the brand name Keytruda - could help thousands more women than previously thought. Emma finds out more from Dr Liz O'Riordan, retired breast surgeon who has had breast cancer herself, twice.
