Hello, my love. Welcome back to the show. On today's episode of the podcast, I get very

vulnerable with you. And I allow myself to talk about a topic in an area of my life that

I actually never ever talk about. It's a very heartfelt episode for me. And I want

to start off by just giving a little bit of a trigger warning so that you know what

this episode is about as well. Today on the show, I open up about a paralyzing

fear that I live with, that I feel in my body almost every single moment of the day. And

that is the fear I have of losing my daughter. And I want to say if loss or the fear of

loss, specifically the fear of child loss and that kind of grief, if that makes you feel

unsteady in any way, if talking about that or listening to someone share their own fear

and their own experience, talking about that, if that makes you feel uncertain or if it

makes your nervous system go haywire, then today's episode is not a good episode for

you. If on the other hand, you've been longing to feel some resonance and for someone to

open up about their fear in this area of life because you feel the same and you want to

feel less alone and you want to get a little bit closer to that place inside of your own

heart that is also looking for healing and for you to be able to soothe your own fears

and your own nervous system and that's helpful to you through storytelling. Then I think

today's episode could be a particularly beautiful one for you to dive into. I feel really

vulnerable just sharing today's episode because this topic for me is the hardest one of

all. And on this show, we talk about absolutely everything. This is the one thing that is so

hard for me to talk about and I can feel it even speaking these words now. I get a little

bit shaky. So as you listen, please listen kindly and thank you so much for being here.

Let's dive in.
