INFO:

✍🏼This is big. This feels VERY big. I really want to make a Carrie Bradshaw and Big reference here, but I’ll keep it in my pants. I am officially a columnist! I am living out a lifelong fantasy of mine. This is proof that really good things can come out of really bad things. I have a lot of ideas that float around my head and many of them remain unpublished... until now. I get to talk about all of the things that really interest me. I know they will be things that interest you too. I’ll cover a lot of raw topics, break down some taboos, but most of all discuss the things that make us human. In Louise Thompson: Unfiltered, you’ll see bits of my life you don’t see on social media. I have been through a lot: a near-death experience in childbirth, chronic illness and PTSD but I am learning to live – and laugh – again and I’d love you to come along for the ride. Speaking of which, want to know the nosiest question I have been asked since I announced I have a stoma on instagram? I don’t know whether you’ll laugh or cry (for me). Pop any guesses in the caption. And you can find out this Sunday in my first column.
