CONTENT WARNING: SUICIDAL IDEATION, TERMINATION, MISCARRIAGE & MENTAL HEALTH.
In this episode we sit down with Brooke, a remarkable woman who has navigated the complexities of three non-HG pregnancies and two HG pregnancies, one of which resulted in a termination. Brooke's raw honesty and unwavering strength come to the forefront as she shares her journey through mental health difficulties, neglect, grief, and ultimately, her commitment to helping others. This episode explores the spectrum of emotions all HG survivors experience, from rage and sorrow to joy and resilience. Brooke's experience sheds light on the challenges of seeking help within a system that often fails to provide adequate support to those in need. We think you will be moved by her ability to channel her pain into a mission of empowerment and assistance for fellow survivors.
