What happens when unimaginable loss changes your life forever?


In today’s episode, John is joined by Rhian Mannings, founder of 2Wish.

Rhian reflects on the devastating loss of her one-year-old son George, who died suddenly after suffering a seizure, and the death of her husband Paul just five days later. She speaks about grief, trauma, and the reality of trying to survive after losing what felt like everything.


The conversation explores the lack of support available to bereaved families, the impact grief can have on mental health, and why honest conversations around suicide are so important. Rhian also shares how founding 2Wish gave her purpose, helping families facing the sudden death of a child receive the support she wishes her own family had been given.
