Welcome to Stand Alone's podcast! We hear from people who are estranged from parents, children, grandchildren and siblings - who have told Jay, our host, their stories. We also hear from Becca, Stand Alone's founder and CEO, and Jonathon, our support group leader in Edinburgh who will be talking to Jay through each episode.

Welcome to Stand Alone's podcast! With two young daughters aged 8 and 12 years old, Pippa vowed to break the cycle of estrangement which she has experienced from other members of her family, and fill the lives of her daughters with love and compassion.
But today’s episode is a bit of a break from the regular - instead of delving into Pippa’s own experience of estrangement, we’ll be finding out more about her collection of writing, “Mother in a Mother”, and her journey to compiling the project from workshops with over 50 women.
