188 It Does Get Better

Today's Episode is a fiery one where I hold nothing back. A grief hot take if you will.  We explore the deeply personal journey through grief and the belief that healing is possible. I share my personal story of baby loss, including the hurdles faced during the mourning period, and offer a passionate counterview to the notion that grief remains static. By using relatable analogies and real-life examples, I emphasize the importance of holding onto hope and the idea that while grief never fully disappears, it becomes more manageable over time. This episode is a heartfelt message to anyone grappling with miscarriage, stillbirth, or baby loss, encouraging them to find strength and embrace the journey towards better days.
