Episode 25: Break the Stigma, Share the Story with Sasha Braham
We'd love to hear what you think!
This week's guest is Sasha Braham, a mother, teacher, and founder of @woowoo_teachersclub and host of the WooWooTeachers Club podcast. In this episode, Sasha shares her experience as an educator and the profound impact her morning meditation has had on her students' achievement.
Sasha also shares her poignant motherhood journey that began with the loss of her daughter at 6 weeks old. She implores us to consider:
Why are we silent about our story? Our losses? Your journey, your story, can help someone else make it through theirs when they see that you’re smiling today in spite of it all. You can be the hope that someone else needs.

& on her Podcast, The Woo Woo Teachers Club on Apple Podcasts & on Spotify.
Here are this week's key takeaways:
You have to prioritize you. You have to take some time to talk to your soul. 15 minutes can change your whole day. If you are expected to give for hours and hours on end, you have to give to yourself first.
Post-partum depression does not mean you’re weak. Get up and go get that help. It shows the strength you have when you recognize the struggle and seek the help. You’re not the hero when you’re suffering.
In early postpartum, just be kind to yourself. You’re literally keeping a human alive, on top of recovering from childbirth and pregnancy. Even if you’re not a new mom, you’re still a new mom to that child. It’s a new dynamic. Just be kind to yourself. Give yourself grace, understanding, compassion. Just allow the flow and ease of the situation.
You just don’t need to make it harder for yourself. Go and sit next to yourself, hug her, and tell her how awesome and amazing she is. Tell her, "I love you, and I love where you are in your life." Give her love as if she’s your best friend because it’s all she needs right now.
We’ve all gone through our stuff. It doesn’t mean the path is going to always be roses going forward. There are going to be lessons that we have to learn in this life. If you believe that your soul has chosen this life, then learn the lessons because it’s going to get you to a goal. Lovingly embrace those lessons - even the sad, even the scary. Take it all. It all makes you who you are. You don’t know where that experience is going to be used to help somebody else.
We need to share our experiences; the good, the bad, the ugly. The more our stories are shared, the more we normalize all the pieces. Your journey, your story, can help someone else make it through theirs when they see that you’re smiling today in spite of it all. You can be the hope that someone else needs.
If you know someone who is experiencing a child loss, that baby, that mother, father, grandparents, etc., deserve to be ackn
