    182 Coaching During Recurrent Loss with Summer

    In this heartfelt episode, Amy sits down with her client, Summer, to discuss the profound journey they've shared through multiple miscarriages. Summer reflects on her experiences of loss, the lessons she learned from her three angel babies, and the impact of her recurrent miscarriages on her emotional and physical well-being. From navigating deep grief and depression to finding solace in coaching and the decision to seek help from a fertility clinic, Summer's story is a testament to resilience, self-discovery, and the importance of giving oneself grace and understanding during times of profound loss and uncertainty. Join Summer and Amy as they delve into the highs and lows of pregnancy after loss, the emotional hurdles of trying again, and the compassionate strategies that helped Summer cope and find hope. Through honest and raw conversation, they explore themes of empathy, self-trust, the importance of knowing when to take a break, and creating a supportive environment to process grief and prepare for new beginnings. This episode is a poignant reminder that even in the darkest times, there is potential for healing, connection, and ultimately, a renewed sense of hope and purpose.   Get support from Amy!
