In this short introduction, I open up about the heart behind Finding Space; a podcast for anyone navigating the quiet, often unspoken grief of miscarriage, pregnancy loss, or life without a baby.

I share my fears, hesitations, and the deeply personal emotions that come with starting this journey.

I may not have all the answers, but I do know this: you don’t have to go through it alone.

We’ll navigate this together, one conversation at a time.
