53: From Silence to Science - Navigating Pregnancy Loss with Grace Parce
In this deeply compassionate and science-driven conversation, I sit down with fertility and hormone specialist Grace Parce of OvaFreak (https://www.ovafreak.com/) and her Instagram community @ovafreak (https://www.instagram.com/ovafreak/) to explore a topic that is both common and rarely spoken aloud: pregnancy loss.
👉 Did you know that approximately 10–20% of clinically-recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage? (March of Dimes)
👉 Some research suggests the rate may be higher — up to one in four known pregnancies may end in loss. (Orlando Health)
👉 And yet, stigma, silence, and a feeling of isolation often prevent open dialogue. (PMC)
In this episode we cover:
- How to approach the topic of pregnancy loss with sensitivity and science — because the physiology matters, and so does the grief.
- Grace’s journey and professional insights around hormone balance, reproductive health, and supporting clients through loss and healing.
- The truths that many people don’t know: the role of chromosomal anomalies, age, lifestyle, and integrative support in pregnancy resilience. (For instance: about 50 % of early pregnancy losses are due to fetal chromosomal abnormalities. (ACOG) )
- Actionable strategies for those who’ve experienced loss — or for their partners, practitioners, and support networks — including how to root your grief and growth within a nutrition-, movement- and fertility-forward framework (in line with the FERN philosophy).
- How the conversation around pregnancy loss can shift from silence to empowerment — how to hold space, how to honour, and how to hope.
Whether you’re a fertility-conscious woman, a partner, a practitioner, or someone building community and care around fertility/health — this episode offers heartfelt validation, evidence-based insight, and meaningful support.
Tune in to learn, grieve, heal, and rise with us.
