Welcome to Her Runway To Rise's second segment, "G & T Chats". These will be mini discussion episodes with Gith & Tab that cover a different topic each week. This weeks topic is "Life After birth" and the notion of moving from "survival mode", back into a new version of "living mode", after a traumatic (birth) experience. In this episode we introduce to you all our podcast Facebook group which can be found by searching "Her Runway To Rise Podcast" on Facebook and we would love all our listeners to join! Please be aware that this episode does touch on Still Birth, so if this topic is triggering or confronting to you, this may not be the best episode for you.

In this episode, Belynda Nichols discusses her journey with HELLP syndrome.
