Anna and Emily are joined by writer Cathy Hayward, who introduces her mum, Hilda. They discuss how becoming a parent makes you look at how you were parented, navigating the grief of a complicated and sporadic relationship, and putting that experience into Cathy's fiction book, The Girl In the Maze.
