Life can be hard and heavy sometimes. This series of daily portraits and stories has taught me that people really need to share their difficult times, as a way to process, but also as a way to help others.
The story I want to share today is a lot lighter. It’s one of pure excitement, mixed with a standard amount of nerves. Musician (and friend) Sinéad White is about to have her first baby. By the time this article comes out, all going well, there’ll be a new baby boy or girl in the world. Her partner knows the gender, she doesn’t, so that’s also adding to the suspense in the room.
