Ep. 24: Catherine Mayer, Journalist, Author & President at Women's Equality Party UK | Grief is love
Catherine Mayer is an author and co-founder of the Women's Equality Party in the U.K. In this beautifully raw interview, she opens up in an honest conversation about grief with Everyday Ubuntu host, Mungi Ngomane. Mayer lost her husband, musician Andy Gill, to Covid-19 in February 2020, 41 days after her mother was herself widowed. Though physically isolated, Mother and daughter embarked on this journey of loss and grief together. From there, a book was born, entitled 'Good Grief'. In the course of this conversation, Mayer shares how grief can give you clarity on what truly matters. What does that mean? For Catherine, this was using her time to benefit others, especially with the current state of the world.
