Kyahhhc ,

Truly amazing

Arden is such an incredible host, and does such beautiful work. This podcast has been so healing to my soul. Very grateful to have found it, and am so thankful for every single person who shares their story.

Hopeful M2B ,

Excellent

Arden and her podcast have been a lifeline for me through this horrid experience. It’s so nice to listen to familiar stories and know that someone else has walked in these shoes. Cannot recommend it enough.

Baby Rizzo's mom ,

Highly recommend this podcast!!!!

Memorial Day 2021 I got a positive pregnancy test (surprisingly it showed at 3wks & 4 days), announced it 6/7, turned 30 6/14 and had a miscarriage 6/23 at 6wks & 6 days. For the first few days I was not ok but I was better than I expected cz my husband has really been a rockstar through this. About a week or so after I started listening to this podcast and openly talking about my experience and this platform has definitely helped me process everything and understanding miscarriage better. Thank you so so so much for creating this to help us parents. I cannot tel you how much you and the podcast are appreciated.

P.S. I do have questions about the babies you or anyone have lost and if you kept/buried and named them. And if you have this strong feeling that they were a boy or girl, like I’m feeling. I just don’t know what’s normal or not after a loss. Thank you.
