In this special episode honoring Bereaved Parents Month, we’re joined by writer, mother, and advocate Jenny Albers, whose words have reached thousands of families walking through pregnancy and infant loss. Jenny shares the story behind her book Courageously Expecting, the early and late pregnancy losses that shaped her, and how writing became her way of making sure no one feels alone in grief again.
Together, we talk about the emotional weight of pregnancy after loss, how stories help us heal, and the freedom that comes when we stop comparing grief and start validating it—all grief is real, and all grief deserves space.
Jenny also shares the origin of one of the most cherished pieces used in NFTS support groups: “A Mother’s Love Is Not Measured in Weeks.”
