An Adventure through Life, Loss and The Shipping Forecast - Katie Carr
Listen now
Description
Katie Carr is an expressive arts therapist, coach and educator and author of “Moderate Becoming Good Later”, the story of her brother Toby’s attempt to kayak in all areas of the Shipping Forecast. Toby sadly died before he finished his challenge, but as a result of the recordings, photos and extensive notes he collated during his adventure, Katie was able to write the book for him. Having completed the book, she is now finishing his adventure, kayaking the areas of the Shipping Forecast that Toby was unable to complete. Yet whilst Toby was a single man and expert kayaker, Katie is the mother of two small kids and a total novice which makes her challenge all the more impressive.  This is a powerful and personal conversation about life, loss and the power of adventures to help us navigate grief. Katie shares her motivation for undertaking the book and subsequent kayaking challenge, the challenges she encountered and the unexpected benefits she has experienced on the way. Moderate Becoming Good Later is now available to buy on Amazon and other bookshops.
