I'm back and with a mini "rebrand"...At a Total Loss is now Living the Loss Life because well, that's what I'm doing every single day and I'm here to share it with you.When I first hit record, I was drowning. I had just lost Brody only 4 months prior. I was raw, wrecked, and trying to survive the total devastation of stillbirth. That title—At a Total Loss—fit where I was. But grief doesn't stay in one place...and neither do we.In losing him, I've also gained so much:Perspective. Purpose. A community. A deeper love. A different version of myself.So it's time, for the podcast to evolve, too.In this episode I fill you in on what's been happening since I took a mini break (whoops) and what's happening next. I had a wild experience in Albania and I finally tell Wolfy's birth story since he turns TWO YEARS OLD on June 6th! holy moly. All of this is to let you know you're not alone no matter what stage you're in. Thank you for staying on this path with me. We're still grieving. We're still healing. But now we're living even though we've lost.

In this episode of #PourIntoMyCup, I talk with Samantha Vassor, CGI Designer. Our conversations ranged from her journey to becoming a full-time freelance CGI designer, her project, Living with The Stains which was inspired through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and how she embraces her cultural background as a Haitian-Filipino artist.Want to Connect with Samantha?Instagram: @svassor__________Connect with Pour Into My Cup online:Instagram: @pourintomycupTikTok: @pourintomycup

I chat with Lyndsay about her precious second son, Kove, who was born still at 37 weeks just a little over a year ago. That is when her grief and baby loss journey began. Since then she has started Kove's Keeper, a bereavement care package for parents suffering stillbirth & infant loss in the local hospitals. Devastation has since happened again as Lyndsay suffered a miscarriage since Kove's death. She is now currently pregnant for the 4th time and we discuss the challenges of pregnancy after loss. Lyndsay is also very open about her faith in God & how she has managed this relationship.Lyndsay is a sweet soul just wanting to parent Kove the best way she can and to help other Loss Moms out there.

Today's episode is a conversation I had with Dr. Deborah Korn, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience treating trauma with EMDR therapy. If you haven't heard of EMDR before, you're in for a treat because this therapy technique is pretty mind-blowing. From our conversation, you'll learn what EMDR therapy is, how it works, and who might be a good candidate for this innovative intervention for coping with trauma (spoiler alert: you don't need to have had a big traumatic experience to benefit from EMDR!) Best of all, Dr. Korn shared some inspiring and heartwarming stories about people whose lives have been changed for the better (or maybe even saved) by EMDR therapy. I hope you enjoy the episode!Show notesLearn more about Dr. Kornhttps://www.everymemorydeservesrespect.com/about-deborah-korn-psydEvery Memory Deserves Respect Bookhttps://www.everymemorydeservesrespect.com/bookLearn More About EMDREMDR International Associationhttps://www.emdria.org/about-emdr-therapy/EMDR Institutehttps://www.emdr.com/what-is-emdr/

Catherine is the mother to her TWO angel babies, Brooklyn (11/29/16) and Miles (12/7/17 - 12/14/17) and her now miracle baby, Lux. Catherine's experiences have covered a range of "rare" circumstances. We discuss ALL of it. She has faced an incompetent cervix, placental abruption, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), the NICU, a journey with a gestational carrier and miscarriages. After thinking she would never be able to physically carry another baby, she carried her miracle baby, Lux, to 37 weeks in 2021. Almost 8 years after her first loss, she shows us that grief has no expiration and how she includes all of her babies in their family today. Check out her Podcast: Angel Moms SisterhoodInstagram: @angelmoms.sisterhoodYouTube: @angelmomssisterhoodEmail: angelmomssisterhood@gmail.com JOIN THE LOSSLINK WAITLIST HEREOr if it's after July 18th, go to LossLink.com *************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Courtney's precious Conrad was born still after a seemingly perfect pregnancy. Her journey to this point is super insightful and extremely raw. We chat about literally everything in this episode. No really, like, wanna hear 2 loss moms just going IN on this whole situation, this is the episode. Does it sound like we're ranting? GOOD because we are and we are allowed to. Most *normal* mothers do this but with wayyy less intense subject matter. We are keeping it very real here.  Here is what else we talk about in this almost 2 HOUR episode...Being sent home without babies but with our mental health in extreme danger.Post Partum strugglesThe loss of her parents + the loss of her baby.We are expected to "move on" when we just cannot do that.Society likes to distance themselves from death yet sensationalize it on TV & film.Letting medical pros know how horrible this is so that they get it.The struggles of having a living baby after loss.Medications to take while strugglingRelationship with GodI told you we tackle a lot lol... AND there's more!We just want this to help.

Bri's daughter Caroline was diagnosed with a rare form of CHD called Ebstein's Anomaly. Living in Sacramento, her and her husband moved to Stanford to ensure she received the best possible care. After Caroline was born, she spent 27 days fighting for her life until ultimately passing away peacefully in her mother's arms. Among her diagnoses it was also found that she had Pallister-Killian Syndrome (PKS) after she was born. Bri talks about this journey. From finding out about her daughter's rare disorder, to how to proceed, to giving birth to her daughter alive, to then deciding to do surgeries and the days she lived in the NICU. Bri walked away with zero regrets, something a lot of loss momma's wish they could do. Our hope is that this story finds someone who needs to hear it. Bri would love to connect with anyone who can resonate with Caroline's story or needs guidance navigating their own.  But no matter what your experiences are, it helps to hear about how to cope, how to hold onto hope, and how you are anything but alone.Information on Ebstein's Anomaly: HERE To connect with Bri, find her on Instagram at @brihansen  ************************************* NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Loss of relationships is a HUGE topic after  baby death. In this episode, I break down the 4 categories of family & friend relationship loss that I see and hear about all the time.1) People who choose to exit your life2) Toxic people who you choose to separate from3) Good intentioned people who just don't see your loss the same4) Awesome people whose stage of life is too hard to be around.I break each of these down and also dig into the fact that we have to take into accountability our own behaviors. It's a sticky situation and one that no one tells us how to navigate. i hope to shine light on this, help you feel less alone, and to potentially guide you in a way that helps you navigate it all.Watch it on my At a Total Loss YouTube Channel!*************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

I'm tackling the topic of having to make decisions after loss. While some don't think this is an issue, Loss Moms find it to be a massive one. Especially when it comes to PAL, babies, loved ones, & anything having to do with choices. Loss changes us radically. So much so that everything becomes a matter of life & death even if it's a casual situation. The weight of having to make choices is almost paralyzing sometimes. Here I dive into it and shed some light on how I feel about it and what others I've spoke to feel as well. Hope it helps!  To watch on YouTube:  At a Total Loss YouTube Channel *************************************  NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Sharon's life changed forever with the tragic death of Matthew, her only child, when he was just 17 years old. She felt she had no purpose and became angry and lost. She then consulted with many mediums and received validating messages, proving that Matthew was still “alive” and was helping from the other side. Sharon realized that we all have the natural ability to communicate with our loved ones in spirit and that she too could become a medium.  This was her destiny, and a way to make some sense out of her tragedy by helping others. This episode is Sharon's perspective on life after death and how our loved ones are still with us. Many Loss Mommas seek out the guidance of psychic mediums. So if you have ever been curious, here is a glimpse of what to expect if you work with one like Sharon.To watch this episode, head to YouTube: At A Total Loss YouTube ChannelIf you'd like to contact her:Email: sharonmcgregor65@gmail.comWebsite: https://sharonmcgregor.ca/  *************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Her perspective is inspiring and for anyone who needs a reminder of how to keep going, Edlyn is it. If she can, we can too.This story is not to tell you not to have hope.

Liz's son, Harrison, was stillborn at full term. She joins me in discussing her experiences in her workplace with maternity leave policy and what that looked like. When she found that the terms were not even in place for mothers who didn't get to bring their baby home, she did a ton of research and went to bat for herself and her son, Harrison. She gives some recommendations on how you too can approach your company to try to make change happen.  We also talk about returning to work and the different ways you can handle it.Going back to work is scary. It's a place where you were at pregnant and happy. Going back after your baby dies seems like going back in time where nothing happened. It's weird and it's a little jarring. Some don't ever want to return and some want to go back ASAP for the distraction. Whatever you feel, it's normal and in this episode we discuss it all.We hope it helps!To get some guidance from Liz on how to handle your workplace policy, message her on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizmyers19/Or on Instagram @lizmyers19  *************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Along with all of this, I read to you some examples of what other parents do on their baby's birthday to help give you some ideas or to help normalize what you'd like to or are already doing.It's a tough topic, and it's not easy being a parent to a dead child. We are doing our absolute best. I hope this episode sheds some light on the subject and helps guide you through the 1st, 2nd or whatever year it is if you need some insight.Hit me up on IG! @thekatherinelazarSupport the podcast and shop the store!  At a Total Loss Shop *************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Liz (from episode 1 and 30) is back to discuss this taboo topic of "Gender Disappointment" during PAL. This is a topic we get asked about A LOT. Now, I don't love this phrase but it's general and we understand what it means without further explanation. I'd like to say it's more like Gender Processing because there's definitely a reaction to having the opposite sex of the baby you lost. We dive into the dark, the ugly, the things we only say to each other. Grief is a big topic we discuss as well as how we handled PAL. We LOVE our babies, however, there are moments that we have to process not having the "picture" we always thought we had.We are open and honest about this and we hope it helps. This is REAL TALK, mommas!Hit up Liz on IG @lizmyers19  *************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

This momma's beautiful daughter was stillborn in 1985. Her perspective ranges over 40 years and she gives insight on what she did and didn't do over the years. We talk about shame behind stillbirth, fear of telling people about them, bringing them through the years and trying to honor them privately. This is incredible insight from a momma who has done this for decades. If you are a momma who lost years ago, please reach out to her. She is looking to now talk about Sabrina more, help others in this situation, and talk to mommas who may struggle with their grief so long after. Email Jeanette at jallen@trcac.org*************************************NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

Wellness advocate, self-taught chef, and New York Times best-selling author Danielle Walker joins Morgan for a candid conversation about grain-free living and the limitations of Western medicine. Danielle's road to healthful eating began with an autoimmune disease diagnosis in her early 20s, after which she discovered a grain-free Paleo diet plan that would inspire five successful cookbooks. In this podcast, Danielle shares her recipe testing process, current eating routine, and all-time favorite cookbook. Morgan and Danielle also discuss the impact of elevated stress levels, stress-reduction techniques, and how EDMR therapy (typically used for post-trauma recovery) can help.     Find her latest cookbook, Healthy in a Hurry HERE!
