Count Our Babies: Samantha Payne on Loss, Miscarriage and Advocacy

Count Our Babies: Samantha Payne on Loss, Miscarriage and Advocacy

Welcome to I'm Listening with Dr Ariella. In today's episode, Dr Ariella sits down with Samantha Payne, Co-Founder and CEO of the Pink Elephants Support Network, for an honest conversation about miscarriage and early pregnancy loss.

Sam shares her personal experience of feeling dismissed and unsupported by the healthcare system, and how it inspired her to build a movement ensuring others don't have to navigate pregnancy loss alone.

She also reflects on the advocacy campaign that helped change Australian legislation around paid bereavement leave for pregnancy loss before 20 weeks, and the realities of building and sustaining an organisation like Pink Elephants.

This is a powerful conversation about loss, support, advocacy and creating change from lived experience.
