In this powerful episode of the No Foot Too Small Podcast, host Jackie Celske sits down with Ali Maahs, Director of Family Support, and Executive Director and Co-Founder, Robin Boudreau, to discuss the heart of NFTS: showing up for and supporting families through pregnancy and infant loss.
Ali shares her personal journey—how her daughter Naomi led her to No Foot Too Small—and how that experience fuels her passion to support other families. She and Robin dive into the evolution of NFTS’s family support programs, from moms' groups and men's social clubs to virtual resources, workplace initiatives, and hospital partnerships. They also discuss the incredible power of community, the importance of saying our angels’ names, and how showing up—even when you don’t know what to say—can make all the difference.
Whether you're navigating loss, supporting someone who is, or simply want to learn how to foster a more compassionate world, this conversation is for you.
