  • Ep. 024 - Brittney & Renee - 12 Days Apart: Finding Strength in Shared Grief
    Oct 22 2024

    In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with two remarkable women who share an unimaginable bond. One day, co-coworkers. The next, loss moms walking this journey alongside of eachother. Just 12 days apart, they each lost their daughters in the third trimester of pregnancy.

    Together, we explore their individual journeys of grief and how losing their daughters changed their lives forever. Their vulnerability shines through as they share the heart-wrenching moments of their losses and the strength they found in one another. This episode is a testament to the unbreakable connection that can form through shared experiences, no matter how painful.

    We also discuss the critical role community plays in grief, and how, by sharing the weight of their sorrow, they were able to heal just a little bit more. Their story is a reminder that while grief may feel isolating, finding someone who truly understands can be the first step towards light.

    This is a conversation about grief, connection, and the incredible strength found in the most unexpected of places.

  • Ep. 023 - Beyond the ultrasound: Jaime & Gina tell all.
    Sep 26 2024

    In this episode, I had the profound honor of sitting down with Jaime and Gina, two incredible sonographers and loss moms who serve as a vital lifeline for grieving parents in our community. As professionals who work closely with bereaved families, they open up about the deeply emotional nature of their work and how their personal experiences as loss moms shape the care and compassion they bring to each family they support.

    Jaime and Gina provide powerful insights into the heartache of their profession—being with parents at the most devastating moments of their lives—while also sharing how, through their partnership with Empty Arms, they are able to offer hope and healing. They speak about the delicate balance between their own grief and the strength they find to help others, all while acknowledging the profound impact that loss has on the families they work with and on themselves as caregivers.

    Throughout the conversation, we explore how Empty Arms has been a key resource, allowing them to not only offer clinical care but also emotional and spiritual support to those navigating pregnancy and infant loss. Their stories are a testament to the importance of empathy, community, and shared understanding in the grieving process.
