00:00

13:55

If you are a bereaved mom who often feels unseen, misunderstood, or like you’re carrying a silent weight no one around you can understand, this episode was created for you. Inside, we unpack the honest, unfiltered truths grieving mothers rarely say out loud — the ones that live in your heart, in your body, and in the quiet places you never show the world. You’ll walk away feeling validated, understood, and less alone as you navigate the impossible journey of child loss. This conversation will help you feel seen, soften your guilt, normalize your experience, and remind you that your grief makes sense.

Key Takeaways

  • The seven “confessions” grieving mothers carry quietly — and why nothing about your grief is wrong or unusual
  • How to hold joy for others while still aching for your child
  • Why the fear of losing another child is so common after loss
  • The complicated emotions around siblings, jealousy, memories, and wanting to share your child’s name
  • Why grief masks exist — and how to live with tenderness toward yourself as you carry both love and loss
