59: Christina's Emotional and Brave Story of Miscarriage, Unplanned and Ectopic Pregnancy, and How She Got Through it All

Listen Later

Have you experienced a miscarriage?  Unplanned pregnancy?  Ectopic pregnancy?  Grab a box of kleenex and get ready to be moved and inspired by the difficult times that Christina went through and her brave and honest story she shares on this episode.

In this Episode Christina and I go deep to discuss:

  • the emotionally difficult experience of miscarriage and how she felt it was all her fault 
  • the shock and stress of an unplanned pregnancy, the guilt she felt,  and how that really rocked her foundation
  • the roller coaster of accepting the pregnancy to learning she had an ectopic pregnancy  
  • what she did to get through the emotional loss and move past all the guilt
  • how she now sees life and her kids differently after this experience

    • NOTE: I am so honoured and humbled to have Christina share this incredibly difficult experience and her story.  In addition, I am so incredibly proud of her being brave enough to be the voice for so many women that have gone through an ectopic pregnancy or loss of a pregnancy in some other way. Please share this with another Mom you know who has gone through a similar loss to help them feel they are not alone.

    What Message Christina Would LIke to Share From this Experience

    It's okay to not always put on a brave face, and it's okay to ask for help.  Sharing the load will help you be a better Mom.  This will help us bring back the village and help each other out in our Community of Moms.
