Listen "197. Held Together with Rebecca N. Thompson"
Episode Synopsis
"I’m a little less than I would have been without my struggles, and also a little more. My children are not what make me whole. But they are part of what I needed to stop feeling broken."Learning to tell our story as a griever is an art form a transformation, and a necessary part of the healing process but often, it can feel unsafe to get started. In her new book Held Together: A Shared Memoir of Motherhood, Medicine, and Imperfect Love, author Rebecca N. Thompson explores the many ways that grief shows up in the world of parenting. Her own work as a family medicine and public health physician wasn’t exactly insulation against her own pregnancy complications and losses, but it did allow her to begin creating a container where others in similar situations could learn to tell their stories, too.Links + Resources from this episode:Learn more about RebeccaOrder Held TogetherVisit Restorative Grief on social mediaBecome a Patron!Learn more about 1:1 coaching opportunities
