About this week’s episode

Welcome to a special series of podcast episodes in honor of the 10th anniversary of my first book, Grieving Parents: Surviving Loss as a Couple, published in 2014. To mark this milestone, I’m reconnecting with the same parents I initially interviewed for the book, offering a unique opportunity to revisit their stories and gain a deeper understanding of their journeys—now, with the perspective of a decade.
The month of October was Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, this series is dedicated to showcasing how grieving parents have coped with their loss and trauma over the years. These episodes aim to offer a long-term view of life after the loss of a pregnancy or infant, providing comfort, insight and hope to those who may still be navigating their grief.
Additionally, I’m excited to offer Healing Steps, my audio course, at 25% off. I decided to extend this offer for another two months until the end of December. Use the coupon code HSOCT24 to access the course and begin your journey toward healing.

About this week’s guest

Alexa Bigwarte is Kathryn’s mother. 
Here is what Alexa shared in response to the biggest things that have changed about your grief over the 10 years: “Everything. My loss was relatively new when we first talked, now it's been almost 13 years. I see grief through a different lens. It's not raw anymore; my focus is completely on healing and continuing to heal, not staying stuck in the pain.”

Alexa Bigwarfe is an author, speaker, publishing cons
