In this special episode of It’s a Death Sentence, we hand the mic over to the wonderful psychic medium Helen Milwood for the full, unedited live readings she did for us earlier this year.

Both readings are funny, emotional, and scarily accurate in places – exactly the kind of chaotic spirit energy we love on It’s a Death Sentence.

From itchy palms to shoes on the table, Irish mammies have a superstition for everything - but when death knocks, the rules get delightfully dark and downright bizarre.

In this episode of It’s a Death Sentence, we tumble down the rabbit hole of deathly omens and gloriously grim rituals - from doppelgängers dropping doom, birds stealing souls and clocks frozen at the fatal hour.

Grief doesn’t always arrive with a funeral - it can slip in quietly after a divorce, an empty nest, or the slow realisation that part of who you were is gone.

In this episode, we sit down with Lucy, who shares her profound journey from losing her mother to brain cancer and her stepdad soon after, to founding a bereavement support service and organising uplifting events like her upcoming Grief Festival. Drawing from personal trauma and professional insights, Lucy explores how grief manifests in divorce, abuse, job loss, and even motherhood's identity shifts, emphasising the power of feeling emotions fully without judgment.

We dive into the myths of "normal" grieving, the role of community in healing, and practical steps for navigating life's inevitable losses.

What You’ll Learn

- Beyond Bereavement: How everyday setbacks like divorce, financial woes, or empty nests trigger grief, and why acknowledging them is the first step to recovery.

- Personal Pivot: Lucy's story of turning double loss into a mission, from bedside vigils to launching support groups and a grief festival that blends tears with inspiration.

- Embrace the Pain: Why avoiding emotions only delays healing, plus tips for giving yourself permission to feel, release, and grieve on your own timeline.

Lucy’s compassionate wisdom reminds us that grief isn't a straight path - it's a shared human experience where vulnerability opens the door to profound strength and connection.
