When you lose someone you love, it’s easy for those around you to understand that grieving this loss is a process – it will take time. 

But what happens when that loss isn’t so clear to everyone else? 

When you’re grieving the future you may never get, when infertility has stolen your ability to plan your family & how many children you’ll have...

And of course, the loss of a pregnancy – no matter how far along you were.

How do you navigate the grief of all these losses when you're trying to conceive – especially when those around you don’t understand what you’re going through?

Today on the podcast I get to sit down with Sally Douglas – the co-host of the Good Mourning podcast, who shares everything she knows about handling grief as you're struggling with fertility.


By the time you finish listening, you'll find out: 

  • The common misconceptions about infertility grief
  • Strategies to help you cope through the grief of infertility and loss
  • Mindset strategies you can use as you're trying to conceive


You can connect with Sally via her website, Instagram or incredible podcast.
