What happens when your child is ready to leave home… but you’re not ready to let go? 🥹

In Episode 8 of Once Round the Goldfish Bowl, Paula opens up about the emotional reality of her 17-year-old son moving to Newcastle, feeling incredibly proud and excited for him while quietly wondering how she’ll cope with the empty bedroom, the quieter house and possibly even missing the abandoned wet towels!

We also catch up on the 18km Thomas Muir Trail walk, a Dublin concert adventure and a car journey that felt more like a bouncy castle. It’s warm, honest and full of the usual laughs.
