Episode 6: Life After Loss with @HeyLossMama Hailey Brissette-Mathias
This in an episode I've been wanting to share for a long time. It's the conversation every woman who has experienced pregnancy loss needs to have.
I first met Hailey when I had just lost a baby. Everything she said resonated deeply. She made me feel seen. She made my feelings seem valid & worthy.
You probably know Hailey as @HeyLossMama. She is outspoken, unapologetic, and exactly the person you want in your corner if you're navigating the grief of pregnancy loss. She's emotional, spiritual & open-hearted.
In today’s episode, we talk about:
- Hailey's personal journey of her losses
- Her experiences of the medical system & how we can better advocate for ourselves when the worst possible thing happens during pregnancy
- How we can do better as a community to support women when they lose a baby
You can connect with Hailey via her website or her Instagram
