I have featured on a couple of parenting podcasts recently, talking about parenting after loss and the experience of grief when a baby dies.
Resilient Kids**
The Resilient Kids podcast provides a resource for parents to navigate parenting. From the author of the Parenting Road Code, Madeleine Taylor, comes a series of podcasts to support parents. The podcast features interviews with parents, all with different and unique perspectives. Madeleine’s knowledge set provides a platform that encourages natural, useful and resource-filled discussions.

(**I try to be inclusive in my language and in this recording I haven't been very inclusive - I've used gendered language, primarily talking about mothers and fathers, and also have tended to talk about families who have gone on to have subsequent, live babies which excludes those for whom all of their precious babies have died. I want to acknowledge that here.)
Parental Well-Being Podcast
When a young baby is lost, parents are faced with so much grief, questions and a process you never think you would go through. How do bereaved parents cope in the days, months and years after such a loss of a loved one, and what support do they need? Click here to listen to the episode.
