Talking to Children About Death

Healing After Baby Loss with Doreen Korba from StillMama.org

It was one thing to navigate my grief as an adult, but then having to tell my 3 1/2-year-old son that his baby sister had died compounded my grief. I wasn't prepared to have that conversation or any death conversation with him. I wasn't given any helpful resources in the hospital and I really wish I had someone to guide me through that.

This episode is what I wish I would have known 8 years ago about how to have that conversation, and I share with you how it actually went down. What we said, how we said it, and how we continue to navigate the questions we get from all of our children about Harper. 

I hope this helps you navigate these hard-hitting questions from little enquiring minds.

I would love to connect with you - here's how you can find me online.
