In this week’s episode we are joined by two of the most soulful women you will ever meet, who courageously share with us some of the most intimate moments of their lives; their miscarriages. We asked Shelley and Katie onto this podcast to share their stories because in our culture and experience of miscarriage they are quite unique, if not radical, in their honouring of loss and healing.

In honour of their stories and sharing we have chosen to make this a single two-hour podcast episode that we hope offers insight, healing and nourishment to your heart.  Our thoughts are with every woman who has walked this path and we send a prayer of love for each experience of baby loss.

Please note the stories shared should not be considered as medical advice in any way. We advise contacting your own medical professional for guidance.
