This is the fan mail link! #shithappypodcast, #inspiringpodcast, #podcastinterviewSHOWNOTES: Losing Layla - A Beautiful Mourning with Vanessa Gorman ep 72Vanessa Gorman takes us inside one of the most intimate and influential Australian documentaries made: Losing Layla. What began as a personal film about wanting a baby became a raw, unfiltered record of birth, loss, and the radical act of keeping love present in the darkest hours. Vanessa talks about filming the pregnancy, the emergency cesarean, the neonatal retrieval team, Layla’s short life, taking her home, and how showing the full truth of grief helped change how families and hospitals approach neonatal death. This is a tender, powerful conversation about love, loss, and the courage to stay open.Topics– The accidental beginning of Losing Layla – Filming intimacy before filming was normal – Emergency cesarean and neonatal distress – Bringing Layla home – How the documentary changed hospital practices – Complex grief for both parents – The need to “be seen” in loss – Friendship, support, and emotional honestyEpisode Specific Links Losing Layla (film): https://www.cultureunplugged.com/documentary/watch-online/play/50384/losing-layla Layla’s Story (book): https://www.penguin.com.au/books/laylas-story-9781742281117 Transcript: https://shithappy.com/losing-layla-a-b…ssa-gorman-ep-72/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessa-gorman-b565014/?originalSubdomain=auFind Related Episodes on www.shithappy.com *  8 Cathy Henkel – A Joyful Death * 14 Petrea King – A Spiritual Survival Story * 2  Heidi Dening – Petrol Bombs, Tsunamis and Badassery * 73 Good Grief with Vanessa Gorman Heads UpThis episode discusses neonatal death and intense grief.Support the show Links To Love (newsletter +++): https://shithappy.com/resources/
