Send Jen a Text Message

Have you ever felt guilty… and couldn’t even explain why? That quiet heaviness in your chest, the weight behind your shoulders, the phrases you’d never say out loud:

• “I should’ve known…”
• “My body failed.”
• “What if I had done something differently?”

In this episode, I’m peeling back the layers of the silent, suffocating guilt that so many stillbirth moms carry. Not the kind of guilt you can rationalize or even name out loud — but the emotional kind that sneaks in during the quiet moments, especially when the world has moved on but you haven’t.

This episode is for the mom who blames herself even though no one else is pointing fingers.
 It’s for the mom who punishes her body, replays every moment, and feels ashamed just for laughing again.
 It’s for you — if you’ve ever wondered whether peace is possible without forgetting your baby.

Let’s talk about the guilt that lives in your bones… and how you can begin to set it down.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through:

• Why stillbirth guilt isn’t logical — and why it sticks around anyway
• What emotional guilt does to your body, your mind, and your relationships
• The 5 types of guilt stillbirth moms silently carry
• Why joy, laughter, and even rest can trigger feelings of betrayal
• How guilt hides behind “I should have known” or “What if…”
• Practical ways to question guilt and speak truth to it
• Rituals that connect you to your baby — instead of punishing yourself
• The one truth every loss mom needs to hear today
