The last year has been a period of life like no other, as the Coronavirus pandemic has not only gripped the UK, but the World. For months on-end we’ve been asked to live our lives in a completely different way. For so many of us we’ve spend the last year working from home. For those of us who are parents we’ve seen our children spending most of the last few terms away from school and time with those we love, family and friends has been largely spent on screens rather than in person. And tragically for people up and down the country we've seen family and friends lost to this devastating virus. This has been a period of time when all our lives have been interrupted. Its a period when all of us have struggled with anxiety, fear, stress and loss. The loss of those we love, and the life we once had. My guest on this episode of Life Interrupted is a lady who has spent her life helping people deal with trauma. Dr. Emma Kavanagh is a police and military psychologist and also a best selling author. She’s also someone who has spend her entire life dealing with her own anxiety and mental health challenges. Throughout the pandemic, Emma’s honest posts online have been helping countless others through this strange new world we now find ourselves in. So if you, like so many, have found this past year incredibly hard, I have no doubt that Emma’s wise words will not only encourage you, but also remind you of that powerful truth. That you are not alone.
