Summary
Miscarriage or infertility can be very hard to talk about, and the lack of support for women and couples going through it can make it even harder to know where to go for help. For this reason, I've invited Growing Self marriage counselor, therapist, women's health and fertility expert Sonya J to join me on the Love, Happiness and Success Podcast. We're talking about:
- What women who are grieving after pregnancy loss need from their partners, family and friends.
-
How the healthcare system fails to support the emotional needs of women and couples going through the experience of miscarriage or infertility.
- How couples are impacted by infertility and pregnancy loss, and how they can support each other through it.
- How couples can protect their sexual relationship as they are dealing with infertility.
- The difference between simple and complex grief, and how to heal emotionally after a loss.
If you've been dealing with this extremely difficult life experience, we hope that you join us and listen to this episode of the Love, Happiness and Success Podcast.
Sincerely,
