In this deeply honest episode, psychologist and author Dr. Jessica Zucker returns to BDA Baby to talk about her new book “Normalize It” and the personal experience that shaped her path. After experiencing a traumatic second-trimester miscarriage at home, Jessica made it her mission to break the silence around pregnancy loss and maternal mental health.

We talk about how stigma, shame, and silence continue to affect women across all stages of life—from girlhood through motherhood—and how storytelling can be a powerful tool for healing. Jessica shares what it was like to grieve while working as a therapist, how her loss led to the viral I Had a Miscarriage movement, and why creating space for women to speak openly is critical.

If you’ve ever struggled with how to support a friend through loss, felt isolated in your motherhood journey, or needed permission to speak the hard truth—this conversation is for you.
