TFMR Awareness Day.

And while I'm a day behind here in Australia, in much of the world it's still May 4th, and this felt too important not to mark.

This week I sat with Jayme Serbell , who has been pregnant six times, has four babies who died and two living children.

Two of her pregnancies ended with TFMR.

The first was a twin pregnancy where Killian, her identical twin boy, was actively dying.

Where continuing without intervention would almost certainly have taken Sheamus too.

Where she and her husband signed stacks of documents with words like "terminate" and "abort" on them, in a state where it was still legal to do so.

Where she then carried both boys, one growing, one not, for the rest of the pregnancy.

The second was an ectopic pregnancy that the ER dismissed as gas and sent her home.

That cost her a fallopian tube.

That she had to fight to be taken seriously about, in a body that already knew.

TFMR is not one story.
It is not one type of loss.
It is not one kind of grief.

It is wanted pregnancies.
Impossible decisions.

Bodies that carried babies, they were desperately hoping to bring home.

Jayme's full episode is out now.

And to every parent sitting with a TFMR loss today, your grief is real, your decision was made in love, and you are not alone.

The hardest realisation on this childless not by choice journey.
That nobody is coming to fix this for you.

Not your partner.
Not your doctor.
Not your family who keeps suggesting you try one more time.

Guest @

For years, Judi Johnson waited. Hoping something, or someone, would change things.
And then one day, the truth landed.
Nobody was coming.
And as devastating as that moment was, it was also the moment everything began to shift.

Because when you stop waiting to be rescued, you start doing the only thing that actually moves you forward.

You start showing up for yourself.

🎧 Judi's full episode is live now, link in bio. If you are somewhere on this journey and you have been waiting for a sign that things can get better, this one is for you.

She said it so simply. And yet it holds so much.

Guest

Because it's true, isn't it?

We look at this community, at how hard it can be to reach people, how guarded it can feel, how slowly trust is built, and we can start to believe that maybe people just don't want to talk about it.

But that's not what the research shows.

That's not what I've seen in over 6 years of this work.

People desperately want to talk.

They want to be asked.
They want someone to sit with them in it without flinching.
They just need to know it's safe first.

Dr Amanda Garnica joins me on the podcast this week — and this conversation is one I know you've needed.

I didn't leave the hospital with support.

I left with a discharge summary and silence.

No follow up.
No acknowledgement that what had just happened to my body, my identity, my sense of future was significant.

The world moved on in a timeframe that had nothing to do with what I was actually carrying.

And that silence, that deafening, clinical, dismissive silence, became the reason I do what I do.

Because I know I'm not the only one who experienced it that way.

I know there are women who sat in that same silence and felt the same thing I felt.

That this was enormous.
That what happened to my body was real.
That grief doesn't begin to cover it.

And I know there are women who sat in that silence and thought; "someone needs to build something different."

If that's you, if you have your own version of that gap, the thing that gets under your skin, the thing you keep coming back to, that thought is not random.

It's information.

Loss to Legacy is the four week container where that thought becomes a direction.

Read that again. 🤍

For every woman who has spent years thinking something is fundamentally *broken* in her — especially after pregnancy loss.

Guest

Your anxiety isn't a flaw.
Your hypervigilance isn't weakness.
Your nervous system didn't malfunction.

It learned. It adapted.

It did everything it could to keep you safe — from the very beginning.

Sometimes even before you were born.

And yes, it can feel like too much. It can feel like it's running your life, your relationships, your pregnancies, your parenting.

But the starting point for healing was never shame.

It was always this — **understanding.**

When you stop fighting what your body is doing and start getting curious about *why* it's doing it, everything changes.

You are not too anxious. You are not too much. You are not broken.

You are someone whose survival system worked exactly as it should.

And now? You get to show it that it's safe to rest. 🤍

🎙️ This quote is from my latest episode with somatic therapist — full conversation on anxious attachment, pre-verbal trauma, grief, and pregnancy loss is live now.

"You have endometriosis."
Okay. Finally, an answer.
But then what?

Guest .to.rise

For most women, that's where the road ends.

You get the diagnosis.
Maybe a prescription.
And you're sent on your way.

But here's the truth most doctors won't tell you:
A diagnosis isn't the answer—it's just the starting point.

Endometriosis.
PCOS.
Recurrent loss.
Unexplained infertility.

These aren't just labels to accept and live with.

They're your body's way of screaming:
"Something is missing.
Something needs support.
Please listen to me."

Period pain? Your body is communicating.

Irregular cycles? Your body is communicating.

Struggling to conceive? Your body is communicating.

Pregnancy loss? Your body is communicating.

And it doesn't have to be multiple losses to decide to investigate.

The real work begins when you stop accepting the diagnosis as the final answer and start asking:
WHY is this happening?
What does my body actually need?

That's where healing lives.
That's where Alyssa found hers.

🎧 Hear how she went from "you have endometriosis, your only option is IVF" to pain-free periods and natural conception—by finally learning to listen.

Your symptoms aren't random.

You're not too late. You're right on time.

I thought I'd missed my window.

Mid-thirties, looking at everyone who'd started in their twenties, already established, already successful. I thought the space was saturated. I thought there was no room for me.

Then I looked closer.

Thousands of grief coaches—but none specializing in reproductive loss and trauma.

None treating pregnancy loss as vastly different from other bereavement.
None recognizing it as postpartum, as identity reconstruction, as nervous system crisis.

I wasn't too late. I was the first to do it the way it needed to be done.

Here's what I want you to hear:

The fact that others started before you doesn't mean the space is saturated. It means there's proof of demand.

If there are successful grief coaches, that proves people are looking for support.

But bereaved mothers aren't just looking for a grief coach.

They're looking for someone who understands that pregnancy loss is reproductive trauma.

If you don't see that specialist, you are meant to become that specialist.

Your story is enough.
The niche isn't too small.
And you didn't miss your window.

Bereaved mothers are searching for you right now.

"I really need to keep it together while I'm in here. I really need to keep it together."

Guest

For six weeks in hospital, Dimi held herself together.

Daily blood tests at 7am.
Methotrexate injections.
A procedure that ended a heartbeat.
10 days in complete isolation—no window, no walks.

Constant fear: "Is today the day I have to have a hysterectomy?"

She created routines.
Coffee walks.
Makeup every morning.
Game shows at 5pm.
Anything to get through each day.

But she wasn't processing. She was surviving.

When she finally came home to her apartment—her happy place—she couldn't feel the relief she expected. "That's when I fell into a bit of a heap."

Then came the pressure to move on. "It happened, just forget about it."

So she threw herself into egg freezing. Eight cycles in one year. Treatment became distraction. Because focusing on *that* meant she didn't have to focus on *this*.

It took 4 years.

Four years before she could finally let herself cry.
Four years before a meditation retreat in Greece where she set the intention to simply "let go."
Four years before she could truly grieve what happened.

If you're reading this and you're still "keeping it together"—your timeline is valid.

There's no rush to process trauma.

And when you're ready, you don't have to do it alone.

Listen to Dimi's full story (link in bio).

Her vulnerability in sharing what she's never spoken about publicly might be exactly what someone needs to hear today.

Parenting all six of her children—three on earth, three in heaven 💫

Guest

Shruti has three beautiful living children.
She also has three angel babies.
And she refuses to choose between them.

This is what healing after loss actually looks like—not forgetting, not "moving on," but learning to hold both grief and joy simultaneously. Learning to parent the babies you can hold AND the babies you carry in your heart.

It took Shruti a long time to reach this balance. And she's clear: "It's still work in progress. It's not 'okay, I'm all perfect now.' It's work in progress. It's going to remain work in progress."

There's no finish line in grief. No point where you're "done" or "healed completely." There are layers. There are seasons. There are moments when the grief resurfaces and asks for attention again—and that doesn't mean you've failed or healed wrong.

You don't have to choose between honoring your angel babies and being present for your living children. You can do both. It's a balancing act, yes. It takes intention, yes. But it's possible—and it's beautiful.

Listen to Shruti's full story on the What I Wish I Knew beyond Pregnancy Loss podcast, including the spine-chilling moment her three-year-old son revealed he'd seen his twin brothers "up in the sky."

The mask we wear to keep everyone else comfortable 😔

Guest Shruti

After losing her twins, Shruti returned to work. People assumed she'd delivered and came back from maternity leave. They'd ask: "How are the twins?"

She'd smile.

She'd say: "They didn't make it."

And inside? She was shattering.

"It was like I was feeling—not physically—that all my organs are breaking apart, but I'm smiling... because I had been told, you need to smile and you need to be happy."

This is what toxic positivity does to bereaved mothers. It doesn't heal us—it fractures us further. We perform happiness to make others comfortable while our grief remains unwitnessed, unprocessed, suffocating us from the inside out.

You don't have to smile through your pain.
You don't have to be "positive" to be worthy of support.
Your grief deserves to be held, not hidden.

The pressure to "just be happy" isn't healing—it's spiritual bypassing. Real healing comes when we allow ALL emotions to exist, when we stop escaping our pain and start addressing it with the compassion it deserves.

Listen to Shruti's full story on the What I Wish I Knew After Pregnancy Loss podcast. This conversation will change how you understand grief, positivity, and what bereaved mothers actually need.
