God damn this is beautiful writing, and something—as a happily married man of seven years with no kids and two cats—I think about more and more. I’m really glad I subscribed to this podcast. Cheers from Cape Town.

Your writing has a way of dislodging all the pain I'm holding in and lets me feel what needs to be felt - thank you Sarah.
