Over the coming months, I’ll continue sharing more deeply here: conversations around grief, healing, ambiguous loss, emotional resilience, love, and the profoundly human experience of creating - and losing - life.
A personal reflection on pregnancy loss, grief, and love - and the surprising realization that heartbreak and deep connection can exist at the same time. Exploring emotional resilience, ambiguous loss, and how grief sometimes reveals love more clearly than anything else.
Grief is Love
The Things That Helped Us Grieve
After losing our baby at 14 weeks, someone asked what helped us survive emotionally. The answer wasn't one thing - it was a hundred small things. From practical support and meaningful rituals to deep love, hotlines, community, and even cookies, this is an honest reflection on what helped us navigate pregnancy loss, grief, and healing.
Pregnancy Loss Journey (Part 1): How we began our journey into parenthood
Pregnancy loss stories often begin with the diagnosis. This one begins with hope. In this first audio recording, Ian and I share the story of becoming pregnant for the first time, the dreams we began building around our son, and the love that surrounded him from the very beginning.
How to Show Up for Someone in Grief Without Saying the Wrong Thing

A few weeks after losing our son, Ian and I sat down with a dear friend to record our story. In this second audio recording, we share what happened after receiving the diagnosis that changed everything, the experience of navigating grief, love, and loss together.
