Philoprogenitiveness- with Rosalie Craig
Today, we're representing the parents. This feeling- the impulse of parental love- will be familiar to many, and so unknown to others. I'm in the latter category, so I needed an interesting mum to talk to, and boy did I find one!Rosalie Craig (@Rosiemae on twitter) is an exceptional award-winning actress, appearing on stage and screen. Most recently, you may have seen her onstage in The Ferryman, City of Angels, or the ground-breaking revival of Stephen Sondheim's Company. She's also a mum, and like other parents, is trying to navigate her life via the love, fear, and joy that comes with having children. I talk to Rosalie about what it feels like to have kids, whether that love was instant, and what it's like being a West End lead who also just wants to get home and tuck their kid into bed. Rosalie is funny, interesting and totally honest about about tricky it can be. In case you're wondering, philoprogenitiveness comes from the now-debunked pseudoscience of phrenology, but don't worry- all will be revealed. Oh, and if you're feeling a little raw about a parent not being around anymore, feel free to skip this ep. I've gone through it too, and I know how it feels.
