In this episode, Lauren bravely shares her story of pregnancy loss, including the stillbirth of her twin boys, and the long, winding road that followed. She talks honestly about the emotional weight of carrying grief through subsequent pregnancies - the fear, the hyper-vigilance, and the loneliness that can come with trying to hold hope and heartbreak at the same time.

Lauren reflects on how deeply these experiences shaped her, not just as a parent but as a person. We talk about the complicated layers of grief that come with losing one or more babies while still showing up for the life in front of you, and the guilt and self-blame that so often creep in after loss. She opens up about the pivotal moments in her journey, including surgery for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, and the impossible decisions and emotions that followed.

Throughout the conversation, community emerges as a lifeline - particularly the comfort of knowing you’re not the only one feeling this way. Lauren speaks about finding solace in shared stories, the importance of talking openly with your partner, and giving yourself permission to grieve without timelines or expectations.

At the heart of this episode is Lauren’s ongoing journey towards healing and acceptance, and the quiet, powerful ways motherhood continues to shape her. Her daughter, Edie, carries an understanding of her brothers that reminds us how love and memory can exist side by side, even in the face of profound loss.
