328 | Post-Abortion Grief: The Basics and How to Finally Mourn Your Baby, Even With No One Who Understands

Have you ever grieved a baby that no one else even knew existed? If you've been carrying that ache alone, friend, you're not alone. So many women who've had an abortion are walking around with a grief they've never been taught how to name, let alone how to process — and it can feel impossible when the people around you have no idea your baby is even in heaven. In this episode, we're going back to the basics of post-abortion grief. Society hands us plenty of scripts for other kinds of loss, but no one ever taught us how to mourn a baby lost to abortion — so most of us just... didn't. We buried it instead. I'm sharing a piece of my own story of realizing I had a baby waiting for me in heaven and having absolutely no idea how to grieve him, because for years, I didn't either. We'll walk through three simple but powerful steps to finally begin mourning your baby. I'll share the what, why, and how behind each one so you can actually start walking this out, not just think about it.   ✨ Want to work 1:1 with me?
