Julia Samuel: How a Therapist Deals with a Complex Maternal Relationship
About this episode
💬 “When someone dies, you can always write to them” ~Julia Samuel
🌸 This week, Cressida and Isabella are joined by psychotherapist, author, and mother of 4 Julia Samuel.
🌸 Julia explores the very complex relationship she had with her mother - whose old fashioned parenting style had knock-on effects throughout her life. She discusses the pain of being separated from her twin brother from a young age. She’s also especially skilled at guiding people through grief and loss - and shares her best lessons as a psychotherapist.
🌸 Join Cressida Bonas and Isabella Branson as they explore how maternal figures have shaped the lives of their guests. Each episode delves into the valuable lessons they’ve carried forward, those they’ve left behind, and the profound impact maternal figures have had throughout their lives.
💬 Plus, hear from listener Louisa, who shares some of the most valuable lessons she’s taken from her mum!
