Unexpecting: What to Expect When You’re No Longer Expecting: Real Talk on Pregnancy Loss (with Author Rachel Lewis)

The Catalyst for Courage Podcast- Igniting Hope in the Midst of Infertility & Pregnancy Loss

This week I was able to finally meet with Rachel Lewis, grief coach, published author, and founder of Brava Mamas. I have felt drawn to Rachel ever since I found her book last year, and I am so excited to have finally been able to connect with her after taking a break from the podcast over the summer. Rachel has such a gift with words and connecting with others on a genuine and personal level and I love her candor and passion for sharing her story and the legacy of her babies in heaven in a way that is inspiring, encouraging, honest and authentic. In this episode, Rachel and I talk about the reality of the experience of “unexpecting” and what that shift and process looks like when you go from “expecting” a baby to “unexpecting”. Rachel shares practical tips to help listeners prepare for and navigate triggers after experiencing a loss, how to move forward “with” your life alongside your grief, and how loss, lament, love, and legacy can all intertwine in a really beautiful and authentic way throughout this lifelong healing process. I hope this episode sparks courage and ignites hope for you in the week ahead. Let’s dive in.
