Fresh Take: Jessica Zucker on Normalizing Miscarriage


Listen Later

Why is there still so much shame and silence surrounding women's experiences with miscarriage in the modern age? Jessica Zucker, author of the new book NORMALIZE IT, discusses her personal experience with miscarriage and its profound impact on her life and career.

Jessica Zucker is a Los Angeles-based psychologist specializing in reproductive health and the author of the award-winning book I HAD A MISCARRIAGE: A Memoir, a Movement.

Jessica, Amy, and Margaret discuss:

  • How storytelling is a powerful tool for healing and community building.
    • Why open conversations about women's health are crucial for emotional well-being.
      • How the lack of information about women 's health makes milestones harder to navigate.
