Let's catch up! A heart-to-heart on pregnancy after loss, healing & learning to trust again
It's been a while since we’ve sat down and had a proper heart-to-heart, and there's so much I want to share with you.In today's episode, I'm opening up about my pregnancy, what it's been like navigating pregnancy after multiple losses, and the emotional journey I've been moving through over these past few months.We chat about everything from finding out I was pregnant, early symptoms and how I knew I was ready to fall pregnant again, to the fears, uncertainty, healing and surrender that can come with pregnancy after loss. But I don’t just talk about pregnancy. This is a much bigger conversation about loss, identity, transformation, surrender and learning to trust life again. I reflect on the last seven years of my life, and the profound transformation I've experienced through loss, heartbreak, endings and new beginnings. A period that has felt like a complete restructuring of the self, where so much of who I thought I was, and what I thought my life would look like, has fallen away.We explore the heaviness of disappointment, the importance of allowing ourselves to grieve, letting go of old identities and stories, and what it means to find meaning and purpose through life's most difficult experiences.This journey has been teaching me to release control, take the pressure off, surrender to what is, and trust that life can unfold in its own beautiful timing.Thank you for being here, for listening, and for allowing me to share these parts of my journey with you. I hope that wherever you find yourself in life right now, there's something in this conversation that meets you where you are.Thank you for being here 🤍A gentle note: This episode includes honest conversations about miscarriage and pregnancy loss.
