Every day in Australia, six families leave hospital without their baby.

For Michelle, that day was August 9, 2001. After a long labour, her daughter Celeste was born perfect, but not alive—turning motherhood into grief in an instant. With around 2,000 stillbirths each year, many preventable, this episode explores the conversations we avoid and the awareness that could save lives.

Driven to create change, Michelle ran nearly 1,000km from Seacliff to Warrnambool in 2024, raising over $100,000 for Stillbirth Foundation Australia and giving voice to families who often go unheard.

This is a powerful story of one woman’s grief, courage, and determination to create change.
