This episode is one I never thought I’d release. Originally, I planned to share our fertility journey and the excitement of being pregnant, joined by a wonderful friend who had also recently discovered she was expecting. But life took an unexpected turn.

At 17 weeks, we said goodbye to our baby boy. Recording this episode was never part of the plan; it was more of a self-healing exercise while waiting to see my therapist—a way to process the unimaginable. Yes, I cry a lot during this episode, and I may not have all the words or answers, but it’s raw, honest, and real.

The heart of this podcast has always been to let people know they’re not alone. If you’ve experienced a similar loss, I hope this episode resonates with you and offers a sense of connection in a difficult time.

I don’t expect this episode to get many listens—after all, who wants to hear someone cry for 30 minutes? But if you do, thank you for your time, empathy, and understanding.

As always, my inbox is open. If you need someone to talk to, vent to, or share your story with, I’m here to listen. 💛
