#21 | Living Through Loss: Healing After Miscarriage or Stillbirth | With Gissell Mota

GUEST:

Gissell Mota - Birth and Perinatal Bereavement Doula

DESCRIPTION:

In this episode of The Sensible Mama Podcast, I sit down with Gissell Mota, The Crafty Doula, to talk about one of the hardest journeys a family can face: miscarriage and stillbirth.

Gissell shares her own story of loss and how it led her to support other families as both a birth doula and a perinatal bereavement doula. We discuss what real support can look like in the midst of grief, how parents can advocate for themselves during difficult moments, and why no one should walk this road alone.

Whether you’ve experienced loss yourself, want to better understand how to support a loved one, or simply want to hear a story of resilience and compassion, this conversation offers comfort, clarity, and hope.
