In this deeply moving episode, I’m joined by Elle Margetson, a mama whose story is one of unimaginable loss, resilience, and hope. Elle is the mother of four beautiful babies—her triplets, Noah, Eden, and Hudson, who tragically passed away after their premature births at 23+2 and 23+6 weeks, and her rainbow baby boy, Sonny, born in 2023.

Elle shares the raw truth of what it’s like to lose multiples, the unique layers of grief that come with that experience, and the loneliness she felt when she realised there was little support for loss mamas walking this path. Drawing on her background in mental health, Elle became a therapist for grieving mothers around the world—turning her pain into purpose.

We talk about:

Elle’s journey through the devastating loss of her triplets

The specific challenges and emotions that come with losing multiples

Finding ways to honour your babies and keep their memory alive

How becoming a therapist for loss mamas has been part of her healing

The arrival of her rainbow baby, Sonny, and the complex emotions that followed

This conversation is for every mama who feels alone in her grief, especially those who’ve experienced the loss of more than one baby at once. Elle’s courage in sharing her story is a reminder that even in the deepest heartbreak, there can still be moments of connection, purpose, and healing.

We explore the emotional layers of grief, the transformative power of vulnerability, and how honoring your story can uncover unexpected gifts and lessons.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Janna Wellemeyer—homeschooling mom of three, wife to a retired Coast Guard veteran, and a woman whose motherhood journey has been marked by deep loss and incredible resilience.

Janna opens up about her experiences with multiple miscarriages and a stillbirth, and the emotional toll it took on her mental health and daily life. She shares how she found her way back to herself through a variety of healing modalities including The Grief Recovery Method, Reiki, Shamanic Teachings, and Human Design.

Together, we explore what it means to carry grief while raising a family, how healing isn’t linear, and why honoring your truth is essential in navigating loss. Janna’s honesty, wisdom, and warmth will speak directly to your heart—especially if you’ve ever felt like you were grieving alone.

Hey mama. It’s me,  Kaitlin. Today we are exploring the importance of processing our grief and some of the needed tools to take us from just surviving to thriving. 

Today I am honored to unpack the healing process with Dawn Jackson, a beautiful soul and an Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist, Infinite Possibilities Trainer, and bestselling author whose work is rooted in compassion, wisdom, and lived experience.

Sitting with and processing grief can be difficult, but it is imperative for the healing process. When grief remains unprocessed, it can reach into every corner of our life. Taking the time to connect and equip ourselves with tools to navigate this new reality can be the difference between living and existing.

Join me as we remember our babies, share our stories and our resources, and hold space for each other as we walk this road together.  Sending you all light and love.

Hey mama. It’s me,  Kaitlin. In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Mayfield for an open-hearted conversation about motherhood, loss, and the journey of grief. Together, we share the raw, unfiltered realities of life after loss—the pain, the love, and the resilience it takes to keep going. This is not just a discussion about grief; it’s about honoring our children, embracing healing, and finding beauty in the brokenness.

If you’ve experienced loss or know someone who has, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone. There is space for your grief, your love, and your healing.

Tune in for a deeply personal and powerful conversation. 

A little bit about Sarah: Sarah struggled to find informed grief services for her son, Bradley, after the death of his brother, Elliot. Today, Sarah’s passion is supporting bereaved youth and families while promoting grief awareness. 

Sarah is a Compassionate Bereavement Care™ Certified Provider, is Certified in Thanatology (Association for Death Education and Counseling), and has been a Nationally Certified Counselor since 2007. She earned both a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Counselor Education from the University of Virginia. 

In her previous nine years as an elementary school counselor, Sarah loved reading picture books aloud to classes on the carpet. It was through the students’ reactions to these books that she discovered a passion for an earnest message packaged in a confident, rewarding rhythm.

Sarah's debut book, This Sure Thing, is her family's passion project for bolstering awareness of childhood grief as well as the importance of continuing bonds with loved ones after death.

Sarah finds joy in upcycling forsaken furniture, getting lost in the plants (and weeds) of her yard, dancing unapologetically in the kitchen with her husband and kids, and remembering the motto, “Love never fails.”

Hey mama. It’s me,  Kaitlin. Today we are exploring the importance of taking care of ourselves, even while grieving.  

Grief has a way of keeping us in survival mode. Each day, we show up as we can. It is important, though, to be intentional in taking care of ourselves,  physically, mentally, and spiritually. By identifying coping mechanisms and ways to care for ourselves, we are strengthening ourselves to walk this road of grief well.

It can be so easy to let life happen. Maybe we even feel guilty taking care of ourselves or experiencing joy while our children are gone. But if we can recognize how showing up is honoring their memory, we can begin to heal.

Join me as we remember our babies, share our stories and our resources, and hold space for each other as we walk this road together.  Sending you all light and love.
