In this episode Allison and Producer Jay explore all the ways we experience LOVE, give it, receive it and value it. Love doesn’t have to always be romantic either, friendships sometimes are the most powerful love we can have outside of finding our “person” in a committed relationships. Love doesn’t have to be complicated, it can be simple, easy and pure. We dive into appreciating and giving love even to those we don’t necessary like.

As humans we always will be healing. ❤️‍🩹

It’s part of the human condition. We can either lean into it, seek it out, grow or try to run from doing the work to heal. In this episode Allison and Producer Jay explores all the ways we can arrive at healing and the significance of the process of healing.

They say 1 in 3 pregnancies will end in a miscarriage. Yet we avoid talking about this, there is a huge amount of guilt and sadness around this common experience, Despite how many women and their partners experience this in the journey to parenthood, there is insufficient mental and emotional support in this time of loss. The loss of what could have been, the loss of the forward momentum that is so pivotal in our adult lives and the loss that is felt physically by the mother to be.

It’s beyond brutal and changes you forever. On this episode we talk about it all. The magic that is making a child, souls always finding a way to you and becoming at peace with the loss. Also one recommendation from regret on a better way to process and heal from this type of loss.
