Send Jen a Text Message
I can never get enough of hearing other loss mom's stories and I love bringing their lives into the room because each one is so special and unique. Mary Matt bravely shares her incredible story of the birth of her twinless twin and how she carried him for many weeks knowing she would say hello and goodbye at the same time she welcomed his living brother.
Listen as she recounts what the experience was like finding out the news and how she and her husband dealt with the reality of their situation and told their older child.

Mary and her husband have been married for ten years and have five children with four boys between us. She navigated secondary infertility, a miscarriage, and a chemical pregnancy as well as the stillbirth of one of their twins, Maverick. They are almost 11 months from the date they learned Maverick died and seven months later said hello to Erixon and see you later to Maverick.
They are learning to pivot and shift in this life after loss as they lean into each other and provide stability and love to Maverick's grieving siblings.

Send Jen a Text Message
My two favorite worlds came together when I got to interview Nikki Scott and talk about all things business, books, and how she navigated the loss of her sister and her husband and many dreams she had for her future along with them.
Nikki is a salon owner and a loss mom who suffered one devastating loss after another. She wrote a book about how she and her husband found each other after each living unimaginable lives growing up. They set out to live a life they were proud of and together built businesses and a family until things started to crumble beginning with the loss of a twin baby and her sister's murder. During Covid, her husband Anthony became ill and died shortly after. Her story recounts the tragedy and how she learned to overcome it all and continues to live the proud life she and Anthony committed to and is quickly becoming the voice of preparing for the unthinkable.

Send Jen a Text Message
We just finished a season of celebrating my son's joyful wedding one moment and then, in the blink of an eye, faced with the sorrow of my mother's health battles and eventual passing. It's within these contrasting experiences that this episode was born, sharing with you the raw and honest reflections on grief's profound impacts, the path to healing, and the power of what my coaching experience allowed for me. The journey through loss has not only reshaped me but has also reinforced my dedication to provide comfort and understanding to parents who have experienced the unspeakable agony of stillbirth and child loss.

We then open up the discussion of navigating life after a loss, addressing the paralyzing mix of guilt and fear, and how to find courage in vulnerability. I offer insights into how grief can alter one's approach to life, sometimes causing a ripple effect through generations, and how to embrace risks for a more fulfilling life after loss. I hope this conversation serves as a beacon of guidance and understanding for anyone walking this challenging path.

Send Jen a Text Message
Emotions were running high as I watched my son say "I do" and embark on his own life journey. This significant event sparked a whirlwind of emotions and personal growth, which I can't wait to share with you. From experiencing the immense joy of my son's wedding, to confronting the heartache of personal loss, I've learned to fully embrace the spectrum of feelings - a concept that I believe everyone should grasp.

Recently, I've also been immersing myself in NeuroLinguistic Programming, Timeline Therapy, and Hypnosis, unlocking powerful tools to help my clients reprogram their unconscious minds. By replacing the doom and gloom narratives we often live in, these techniques foster transformational changes. But it doesn't stop there, I've got some thought-provoking insights to share about handling the holiday chaos, specifically, how to foster connection and provide support during these difficult times. We explore the concept of giving ourselves some breathing space and the importance of understanding our needs, alongside practical tips for making the most of this holiday season. So, sit back, tune in, and let's embark on this journey together.

Can you imagine experiencing an unimaginable loss and finding a way to turn it into a journey of self-discovery and wellness?

Our guest, Erin Tennant, a certified health and wellness coach, takes us along on her life-altering journey. Erin experienced the heartbreaking loss of her son, Max, at seven months gestation. Instead of letting it break her, she used this devastating experience as a catalyst for personal transformation, losing 130 pounds and launching her own health and wellness business, Grow Well Coaching.

In the first half of this episode, Erin and I delve into the raw emotions surrounding the loss of a loved one. We discuss the importance of self-acceptance during the grieving process and Erin gives us a glimpse into her own body image journey after suffering a loss. We contrast this with another person's story of feeling betrayed by their body after a similar experience. Erin emphasizes the power of transformation and honoring emotions around loss, while also acknowledging the struggles of grieving and finding acceptance.

As we move forward in our journey of grief and healing, Erin highlights the significance of self-care and reaching out for support. We discuss the importance of grieving, allowing oneself to feel and process the emotions that come with it. Erin also shares about the symbols of remembrance and healing that have provided her comfort and touch on the significance of creating meaningful memorials and rituals.

In the final stages of our discussion, Erin focuses on promoting support for parents who have experienced stillbirth loss, sharing her own experiences and the comfort she finds in sharing stories about Max.

This episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of personal tragedy.
