Grief Support for Moms After Child Loss is a safe, compassionate space for mothers grieving the death of a child—whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, or the loss of a teen or adult child. Hosted by Lisa K. Boehm (bereaved mom, grief educator, author, and mentor), this podcast offers gentle guidance, heartfelt encouragement, and real tools to help you survive the unimaginable pain of child loss.

Each episode shares practical grief support, honest stories from other grieving mothers, and expert insights to help you cope with overwhelming sadness, navigate grief triggers, and find ways to honor your child’s memory. You’ll find comfort in knowing you are not alone, and hope that life after loss—while different—can still hold meaning and love.

If you’ve ever asked yourself:

Will I ever survive this pain after losing my child?

How do I get through birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays without them?

What does “normal” look like now?

How do I help my surviving children while grieving myself?

How can I keep my child’s memory alive while still moving forward?

Do grieving moms ever heal?

What are some coping strategies to deal with the daily heartbreak of child loss?

…you’ll find understanding, answers, and encouragement here.

Cope with the death of a baby, child, or teen

Find comfort during grief milestones and anniversaries

Heal your heart while honoring your child’s legacy
