We are here at the season finale of Shifting Priorities, and for the final episode, Alli is joined by her friend Lydia Andrews to talk about miscarriage.
In this episode, we share our stories, we talk about where we were and weren't supported, and where we're at now. We even hear the beautiful story of Lydia's journey to adopting her twins!
We hope that anyone who has been through this before can listen to this episode and know they are not alone. They're not alone in miscarriage, and they're not alone after as they embark on trying again with a ton of fear, and feelings of frustration when they find the answers.
We also hope, that by being open with our stories, it will encourage others to do the same.
Social media is a ton of rainbows, butterflies, and pregnancy announcements - which of course is not reality. We want to showcase more stories that are somewhere in the middle.
We're here for you! -
