EPISODE 13: It's time for change: Improving early pregnancy loss support in Australia with Tarla Lambert.

Today we welcome Tarla Lambert to our last episode of The Miscarriage Rebellion for 2023. Tarla is the Editor in Chief & Co-Owner at Women’s Agenda, Australia's leading online news site championing women in their lives and careers. Tarla is regular commentator on politics and women’s news, appearing on Sky News and ABC and speaking at various events promoting equality.

Today Tarla bravely shares her personal journey of pregnancy loss, taking us through the challenges she faced in navigating the healthcare system and the profound impact it had on her emotional well-being.

The episode dives into the stigma and shame associated with miscarriage, exploring the societal and systemic factors that contribute to the minimisation of women's health issues. Tarla, drawing from her experience and professional background, highlights the need for better support networks, early intervention, and increased funding for research in the field of women's health.

This episode will give you insight into the emotional toll of miscarriage, the need for validation and empathy, and the critical role of support networks. The conversation extends to the broader goals of "The Miscarriage Rebellion" movement, emphasising the need for systemic changes, increased funding, and the importance of amplifying individual stories to effect real change.

We wrap up the season with a heartfelt thank-you to the brave women who shared their stories, the dedicated listeners, and a promise to continue The Miscarriage Rebellion in 2024. The episode serves as a powerful reflection on the progress made and a call-to-action for continued support and awareness in the realm of early pregnancy loss.
