Today, I'm having a very important conversation with a mum named Kate.
Kate shares very openly and candidly about her personal journey into motherhood, which involves the loss and grief around two miscarriages and one medical termination within the space of one year. This is not an easy topic and I ask that you use discretion when deciding if the content is right for you at present, depending on your own experiences, and the feelings it may raise.
Whilst Kate does not sugar-coat the hard parts and the toll these cruel experiences have on our body, mind & soul, she also speaks with such dignity and compassion when talking of her losses and you can't help but notice the hope in her voice.
Kate is using her painful experiences to promote the change that she would like to see in her workplace, the construction industry. She has now trained to be a doula and is using these skills and understanding to bring awareness and emotional support to her colleagues going through similar situations and facilitating positive workplace policies and changes that support women, who are mothers, with maternity leave and return to work conditions.
This is so heartening. I hope you get something positive from this episode and please do reach out for support if this conversation has been difficult or raised deep feelings for you.
