Ghosts: Essays in Conversation

The School Run Podcast

The School Run Podcast: This is a podcast conversation based on my essay called “The School Run.” The discussion explores the quiet life of a familiar morning scene outside a primary school. What seems like an ordinary routine reveals a living moment filled with children, parents, grandparents, and teachers, each moving through their own chapter of life on the same stretch of pavement. It reflects on how much of human life passes through these everyday moments when we pause long enough to notice.

Still Here Podcast

Still Here Podcast: This is a podcast conversation based on my essays “Still Here” and “Box.” In this discussion we explore the quiet structure of everyday life, the rooms we wake in, the streets we walk, and the repeating patterns that slowly shape our days without asking for attention. The conversation follows the moment when something ordinary shifts, when a familiar street becomes a pattern, a house becomes one of many, and a room becomes just another space inside a much larger arrangement. Together the essays explore what happens when we step back far enough to see how small our place can feel within the wider shape of things, and the quiet recognition that life continues exactly as it was, even after we notice it.

The Pattern Does Not End With You Podcast

The Pattern Does Not End With You Podcast: This is a podcast conversation based on my essay called “The Pattern Does Not End With You.” In this discussion, we explore why patterns in families and relationships often continue even when we recognise them and try to change. The conversation looks at how habits, reactions, and ways of being can live in the body and move across generations, raising a deeper question: what does it mean to see a pattern clearly and still find yourself inside it?

The Arranger Podcast

The Arranger Podcast: This is a podcast conversation based on my essay called “The Arranger.” It explores the quiet role of the person who keeps relationships moving, the one who sends the messages, suggests the plans, and holds the thread of connection. The discussion looks at what happens when that movement stops, and how some relationships do not end through conflict, but simply fade when the person carrying them steps back.

Why Some Things Do Not Resolve Podcast

Why Some Things Do Not Resolve Podcast: This is a podcast conversation based on my essay called “Why Some Things Do Not Resolve.” In it, we explore the limits of the common belief that everything in life can be understood and eventually resolved through insight. The discussion moves between lived experience and a wider structural view of reality, asking what it means when some parts of a life never formed in a way that allows them to be traced, explained, or completed.
