After the loss of a baby, many parents find themselves asking, “When will I feel like myself again?” Jennifer shares her own experiences and offers compassionate insights into how grief impacts our relationships, shifts our worldview, and reshapes our identity.

Listeners will learn how to navigate changing friendships, appreciate the new perspective grief brings, and gently get to know the 'new version' of themselves. Jennifer also highlights the unexpected gifts grief can leave behind, like deeper empathy and a clearer sense of what truly matters.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Grief Changes Your Relationships: How friendships and family dynamics shift after loss.
  • Your View of the World Shifts: The way priorities change and small moments become deeply meaningful.
  • Getting to Know the ‘New You’: How to rediscover yourself with patience and compassion.
  • The Unexpected Gifts of Grief: The lessons and connections that grief can bring into your life.

Things to Remember:

  • It’s normal to feel like a different person after loss.
  • Some relationships will grow stronger, while others may fade—and that’s okay.
  • Small, meaningful moments can bring unexpected beauty after loss.
  • You are not broken; you are becoming.
