What I Wish I Knew After Pregnancy Loss

In this heartfelt episode, our guest opens up about the profound journey of navigating loss, healing, and finding hope.

Together, they turned a deeply personal and challenging time into a meaningful project to help other families and children dealing with similar losses.

We explore the creative process, the importance of validating children's feelings, and the power of turning pain into purpose. From releasing balloons at a park to co-creating a book, every step was a testament to the resilience and love within her family. Join us as she recounts the moments that mattered most and the lessons she hopes to share with the world.
