Since then, Nathalie has parented both of them the best she can while learning about her own grief. She is a holistic counsellor and coach as well as a writer and published author of multiple grief resource books and the founder of the Grieving Parents Support Network.\n\nThis conversation is truly so healing. We cover what it's like to carry twins knowing one may not make it, what it's been like to parent one without her sister, and how she is a source of hope for those that she coaches by shining a light on what this life is about after loss. \n\nWe discuss:\nGrief as front & center at first\nHow it stays but it isn't as big as in the beginning\nHealing is a process and not an end point. We don't ever say we're \"healed\"\nHow to not lose hope with the potential of losing hope\nSurvivors guilt with twins\nTeaching her daughter about her sister & letting her find her own way of grieving\nUnderstanding our grief\nBeing OK with always having just plan B, living life with grief\nRelationships during and after loss\nWho we are before will dictate how we handle loss\nAnd so much more!!\n\nFind Nathalie on her website at https://nathaliehimmelrich.com/\nFind her books here: https://nathaliehimmelrich.com/my-books/\nThe grieving parents network: https://grievingparents.net/\nYou can also find her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mymissbliss/\n\n**NOTE: this is always an open platform from the viewpoint of the guest and does not always reflect my beliefs. As always do your own research & use your own judgement on what's best for you. I am not a doctor or a therapist. I am just a real life loss mom describing her experiences with life after loss. This is my real life, and I'm putting it out there so you feel less alone. ***\n\n \n\nFor more REAL TALK about pregnancy loss, stillbirth and grief, hit follow!\n\n \n\nInstagram  @thekatherinelazar\n\nFacebook: @thekatherinelazar\n\nYoutube: @thekatherinelazar\n\nEmail: thekatherinelazar@gmail.com\n\nWebsite: www.katherinelazar.com"}
