Together, they explore the long road of parenting after child loss: the complex emotions, evolving identities, and how grief shows up every day.
Ashley shares how her daughter continues to grieve her younger brother, Luke, and how moments of joy are often mixed with guilt. Danielle reflects on parenting after the birth of her second child and the challenges of keeping Lydia’s memory present while still moving forward. The episode touches on co-parenting dynamics, milestones, and what grieving parents need most, not just in the early days, but over time.
This is part 2 of a 2-part series focused on parenting through grief.
