In this episode, I’m answering your questions — the real ones. The ones you sent me quietly on Instagram. The ones that sit heavy in your chest at 2am. 

We’re talking about: 

– Have I actually found joy again… without constantly thinking my baby should be here? 

– How to handle not getting grace from the people around us 

– What to do when you feel like your body failed you 

– Navigating strained relationships after stillbirth 

– Trying to conceive again (TTC) and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with it 

– Regrets about hospital decisions and the “what ifs” that won’t let go 

– Pregnancy after loss (PAL) and living in two realities at once 

– The anger that comes with feeling like you have to “start over” 

Nothing is off limits here. I share what this has looked like in my own life — the messy middle, the guilt, the growth, the perspective shifts that took years to land. I don’t offer perfect answers, because there aren’t any. But I do offer honesty. 

If you’ve ever wondered whether joy is allowed… If you’ve wrestled with resentment toward your body… If your relationships changed and you don’t recognize them anymore… If you’re TTC again while terrified… This episode is for you. 

You’re not dramatic. 

You’re not broken. 

You’re grieving. 

And I’m right here with you. ❤️‍🩹
