Summary
Rosie Green is a writer and good friend who, in the last 18 months, has had a lot of firsts, including her first Christmas after the break-up of her marriage. In this episode she dispenses the wisdom she'd go back and share with herself to make navigating that first festive a little bit easier and, I hope, it helps anyone listening who is going through this for the first time too.
