Ep 90: Writing a book to transform pregnancy loss support with Sharna

In this deeply personal episode, host Sharna Southan opens her heart to share the profound "why" behind writing her upcoming book on pregnancy loss support.

Moving beyond logistics and outlines, Sharna takes listeners into the defining moment that changed everything—walking into an ultrasound room pregnant and leaving empty, only to discover that the silence and dismissal that followed was almost as devastating as the loss itself.

This isn't just another story about grief; it's a call to action for systemic change in how we support women through reproductive loss.

Key Topics Covered:

• The Defining Moment
• The ultrasound experience that changed everything
• What medical professionals don't tell you about pregnancy loss
• The physical reality: contractions, clotting, and trauma no one prepared her for
• The emotional aftermath of medical dismissal

The Systemic Problem:

• Why we don't just have a grief problem—we have a training problem
• How professionals want to help but lack the proper tools
• The silence that surrounds pregnancy loss experiences
• Why women are walking through devastating moments without adequate support

• Understanding pregnancy loss as postpartum experience
