Ep 16: My Favorite Moments of 2020

Ep 16: My Favorite Moments of 2020

Author: Natalee Facey January 9, 2021 Duration: 41:04

We made it, Birth Warriors! We survived, and in some cases, even thrived in 2020. Here we are stepping into 2021—perhaps with uncertainty or hesitation—but doing it just the same! In our very first episode for the New Year, I reflect on the moments in 2020 that brought me the greatest levels of joy, growth, and appreciation. And I end this episode with sharing the thought I am using as my guiding principle for the New Year. If it resonates with you, I encourage you to explore using it as well. 

 

Here we go, Birth Warriors. We're doing it! Sending you so much love for the year ahead! 



If you're looking to get to the next phase of your Birth Warrior Journey, here are ways that I can support you:

 

1. Join the private Birth Warrior Facebook Community with others on their healing journey. Whether you're seeking ways to bolster your healing, on a pause, or are actively trying to conceive, the community allows you to be with other Birth Warriors on their journey, and get the support you need for your next step. I lead a weekly live (Birth Warrior Wednesday!) every Wednesday at 12PM and share resources so you can be the  fearless warrior you're meant to be on this journey. Sign up here: facebook.com/groups/birthwarriorcommunity 

 

2. Work 1:1 with me for your emotional healing or to gently guide you through a conception to childbirth plan for your next pregnancy. Pregnancy after loss or infertility is tough, and you do not deserve to feel overwhelmed or alone. You've been through enough, warrior! And you are so much stronger with the right support! Book a complimentary strategy call with me to help you get clarity on what your focus would be for the next phase of your journey: https://calendly.com/nataleefacey/20min

Navigating the path toward another pregnancy after a loss or trauma is a deeply personal and often isolating experience. Preparing For Pregnancy After Loss offers a compassionate space for this unique journey, hosted by Natalee Facey. As a mother to two angel babies herself, as well as a Resilience Coach and Birth Doula, Natalee brings both professional insight and profound personal understanding to each conversation. This podcast gently addresses the complex layers-emotional, physical, and mental-that accompany family planning after experiences like infertility, traumatic birth, or infant loss. Episodes weave together practical guidance on health and fitness with essential discussions on inner healing and emotional resilience. You’ll hear honest dialogues, strategies for rebuilding hope, and reflections on transforming grief into a source of strength. It’s more than just an educational resource; it’s about finding a supportive voice that acknowledges the fear and courage that coexist when considering pregnancy again. Through this podcast, Natalee aims to foster a sense of community and grounded preparation, helping you reconnect with your own body and spirit on your own terms.
