“Do I really believe everything happens for good, or do I just say that?”
Today, Dr. Tanya English shares her story of deep personal loss. She shares what happens when the unthinkable becomes real, and how to manage navigating grief as a physician mom.
Instead of stopping at sorrow, she chooses to look for the good.
This episode is an uplifting conversation about how grief can coexist with beauty, how something as simple as a blues performance can become a turning point, and how we don’t have to set up camp in the valley of loss.
If you’ve ever carried sorrow and wondered where to put it, or how to live beside it, this episode will meet you there and gently walk you through.
Before we begin, a gentle note: This episode includes a story of the loss of a child. (This is within the first 8 minutes of this interview) If you are currently grieving or in a tender place, please take care in choosing when and how you listen. You are not alone.
If you need immediate support, you can reach out to the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Line at 1-888-910-1551.
