7) Pregnant and Empowered – Healing After Birth Trauma and Pregnancy Loss (Trigger Warning)

Trigger warning: This episode discusses birth trauma, miscarriage, and the emotional impact of pregnancy after loss. Please listen with care and in a safe space.

In this heartfelt and powerful conversation, we’re joined by trauma-informed practitioner Ilena Standring to explore the deeply personal and often under-discussed topic of navigating pregnancy after a traumatic birth or pregnancy after miscarriage. Ilena brings her compassionate perspective and professional insight to support those walking the path of emotional healing in pregnancy.

We discuss the importance of mental health during pregnancy, how the nervous system processes trauma, and practical tools for emotional regulation during pregnancy. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has experienced a pregnancy loss, is coping with birth trauma recovery, or is currently expecting while carrying the emotional weight of a previous experience.

Ilena also shares a valuable YouTube resource on nervous system regulation, which can help listeners better understand the connection between trauma and the body. You can watch it here and follow Ilena’s work and support offerings on Instagram @ilenastanding.
