  1. Faith, Fertility & Grief: Finding Hope When Prayers Feel Unanswered with Dr. Clay Brigance

    Jun 21

    Faith, Fertility & Grief: Finding Hope When Prayers Feel Unanswered with Dr. Clay Brigance

    In this deeply compassionate episode of Good Grief Believer, Julie Craig welcomes Dr. Clay Brigance, licensed professional counselor, researcher, couples therapist, and leading expert in infertility counseling, reproductive grief, and pregnancy loss support. Together, they explore the often-overlooked pain of infertility and miscarriage, a form of grief that many couples carry silently and alone. Drawing from both professional research and his own family's fertility journey, Dr. Clay shares how infertility grief can become one of the greatest challenges a relationship will ever face. He explains why reproductive trauma is often a "disenfranchised grief"—a loss that is very real but rarely acknowledged by society in the same way as other forms of bereavement. Good Grief Believer is a podcast, where I hope you’ll discover the power of belonging to a group, that not only comprehends the depth of your grief, but where you’ll find comfort in our collective wisdom. Each week I’ll interview groups or individuals who have discovered what it means to grieve well, and how to help others along their own healing journey.
