In the sixth episode of Wholeheartedly, I have a fruitful and honest conversation with Arden Cartrette, The Miscarriage Doula. We chat about a whole host of things, including: her own loss story, why she wanted to start The Miscarriage Doula & Co., supporting people through pregnancy loss, mental health, stigmas, toxic positivity, how partners grieve, managing your mental health as an empath in a helping profession, parenting a rainbow baby, and more. At the end of the day, all of us are human, and it’s OK to grieve and honor how you feel at any given moment.
[*Trigger Warning: This episode centers on pregnancy and infant loss. Also, if you’re listening to this episode, Arden’s son can be heard playing in the background at certain points. Please be advised if this is triggering to you. (I totally understand and have been where you are.) These points are: 8:36 and 43:26.]
