47) How to Heal After Pregnancy Loss: Support and Insights with Ilena Standring

Trigger Warning

Pregnancy loss is a deeply personal journey that is far too often navigated in silence. In this installment of our Maternal Mental Health series, Eva and Maren sit down with specialist Ilena Standring to take a warm, honest, and direct look at the emotional toll of miscarriage. We discuss the profound impact of loss on mental health, the complexities of grieving while living abroad, and the vital importance of seeking—and receiving—meaningful support.

Ilena shares her expert insights on how to process the unique grief of pregnancy loss and offers practical advice for those currently in the midst of it, as well as for friends and family looking to offer sensitive care. Whether you are seeking comfort for your own journey or looking to better support a loved one, this episode serves as a compassionate resource and a reminder that your grief is valid. You don't have to carry this story alone.
