    Pregnancy After Miscarriage: Holding Hope Through Fear with Emma from Becoming Mama Yoga

    Pregnancy after miscarriage can feel like carrying both hope and heartbreak at the same time. In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Emma from Becoming Mama Yoga to talk about recurrent pregnancy loss, navigating pregnancy after miscarriage, and finding ways to hold onto hope when fear feels overwhelming. Emma shares her experience of having four miscarriages between the births of her children, the support she wishes had existed, and how yoga, mindfulness and maternal mental health support became anchors through grief. If you've experienced pregnancy loss yourself, please know this conversation was recorded with you in mind. We hope it helps you feel seen, supported and a little less alone. In This Episode We Discuss: • The powerful reminder that you can move towards love, even when fear is present • Challenging anxious thoughts without forcing positivity • What miscarriage actually looks like physically and why so many women feel unprepared • When to seek medical support and where to find help • The importance of maternal mental health specialists • Using yoga and mindfulness as tools for anxiety, grief and depression • The isolation of pregnancy loss and how to support someone who is grieving • Why we need more open conversations and better research around recurrent miscarriage • The role of preconception care after loss Memorable Quotes "You can live in love or fear and not both." "It didn't save any of my babies to be fearful." "It is not your fault."

    Join the 5-day Flow with your Cycle Yoga challenge: https://livsarahberryyoga.kit.com/d4f9b42756 What Women's Health Really Means Beyond Diet and Exercise | Hormones, Energy & Wellbeing in Your 30s When you think about being healthy, what comes to mind? For many women, health has become synonymous with weight loss, appearance, fitness goals and looking a certain way. But what if true health has far less to do with how you look and far more to do with how you feel? In this episode of The 30-Something Shift Podcast, we're exploring a different definition of women's health—one that goes beyond diet culture, aesthetics and the pressure to constantly optimise ourselves. We'll talk about why so many women are exhausted, stressed and disconnected from their bodies despite doing "all the right things," and why energy, hormones, mental health and emotional wellbeing deserve to be at the centre of the conversation. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ Why women's health is about more than weight loss and appearance ✨ The connection between hormones, energy, mood and overall wellbeing ✨ Why painful periods, PMS, fatigue and burnout shouldn't be ignored ✨ How stress and mental health impact physical health ✨ What changes many women notice in their 30s and why they matter ✨ How to build a healthier relationship with your body ✨ A new way to think about health that prioritises wellbeing over aesthetics If you've ever felt frustrated by wellness advice that focuses only on how your body looks, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what it means to truly feel healthy. Topics covered: women's health, hormone health, menstrual cycle health, energy levels, mental wellbeing, stress management, PMS, burnout, healthy habits, cycle awareness, wellness in your 30s, body image, holistic health, yoga for wellbeing. 🎧 Subscribe for weekly conversations on women's health, menstrual cycles, fertility, pregnancy, yoga and navigating life in your 30s. #WomensHealth #HormoneHealth #MentalHealth #Wellbeing #MenstrualCycle #PMS #BurnoutRecovery #WomensWellness #HealthyHabits #YogaForWomen 💌 Let’s Connect: Join the 5-day Flow with your Cycle Yoga challenge: https://livsarahberryyoga.kit.com/d4f9b42756 Practice Yoga with me: Liv Berry - YouTube Learn more: www.livsarahberry.com Subscribe & review the podcast to help more 30-somethings find this showEmpower yourself.
