61: How to Love Yourself Through Loss with Becky Barber

Send me a text and tell me what you're struggling with the most!

It's not easy for women to love themselves through loss. We're so accustomed to caring for others and shoving our own needs aside that when it comes time for us to support ourselves, we don't feel worthy.
On this episode, Becky Barber, co-creator of the Try Self-Love Podcast, shares her story of 6 pregnancy losses and how having living children doesn't heal the grief that came with her losses. We discuss:

• the shame and guilt that come with pregnancy loss, infertility and childlessness
• how detaching from hope doesn't make it any easier
• how to love yourself through any loss including the loss of an identity, such as "mother" for childless women

Becky is a life and relationship coach who helps women to learn to love and respect themselves despite a damaged relationship with someone they love. Through spirituality, healthy boundary-setting and a continual practice of self-love, Becky was able to break free of her own toxic relationship with her mother and now helps others to do the same.
