Summary

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of The Heart and Hustle Podcast, your favorite besties get raw and real about one of the most sensitive topics a friend can face: supporting someone through a miscarriage. Whether you've been there yourself or simply want to show up well for a friend who's hurting, we're giving you the no-BS guide to being the kind of friend who truly cares — from what to say (and definitely NOT say), to how to check in weeks or months later when the rest of the world has moved on. We'll walk you through thoughtful ways to show up — like remembering their due date, marking Mother's Day, or dropping dinner at their door without making them decide what they need — and we'll also call out the phrases and faux pas that can hurt more than help (spoiler: "at least…" has no place here). Plus, we're sharing how to navigate sharing your own pregnancy news with a friend who's experienced loss with empathy, tact, and love. Above all, this conversation is a reminder that the most important thing you can do is simply show up — imperfectly, wholeheartedly, and with a heart that says, "I'm here, and I love you."

You're listening to the Heart and Hustle podcast. We are your host, Evie McLeod and Lindsay Roman. Welcome to the show and our little corner of the universe friend. We are just so happy you're here. And we're happy to have this conversation. I think it's... It's a tender one. It's a tender one, but it's necessary. It's definitely necessary. I feel like you've gathered from the title, but today we're talking about how to handle

0:22.7

when a friend or a sibling or a loved one or somebody close to you goes through a miscarriage,

0:29.2

what to do.

0:30.6

And honestly, we're going to talk about the nuances of if you've had one, if you haven't had one,

0:34.6

if you've experienced grief in any capacity as well. Telling a friend that you are pregnant when they've gone through a loss, things like that. All the nuances about how to handle a delicate situation. I feel like we both, because we've experienced it, have received messages over the years of like, hey, I know you've experienced this. My friend just had a miscarriage. What do I do? How do I handle it? I want to love them, but I genuinely don't know how in this moment. So that's what we're going to talk about today. Yeah. Well, let's dive in. If we asked a room full of people this question, we are sure just about every hand in the room would be raised, ours included. Whether it's in your business, in motherhood, school, or even your marriage, there are moments when we all feel like we are filled with doubt and inadequacy.

navigate the ups and downs, the messy and the beautiful, and everything in between. This is a

community where you can come as you are, get inspired and walk away equipped to build a legacy

in. In case you don't know, just a little like backstory, both Lindsay and I have experienced losses and miscarriages ourselves,
