Ep 26: Honoring Our Partners

Ep 26: Honoring Our Partners

Author: Natalee Facey June 19, 2021 Duration: 32:12

Just as heavy emotions or painful memories might come up for you on Mother's Day and other special occasions, the same might be the case for your partner this Fathers Day (and other special days). What I've noticed with fathers though, is that they tend to prioritize your needs over theirs. This may lead to them hiding any emotions that may come up for them to ensure that they're protecting your emotions. 

 

In this episode, I share tips on creating space for your partner and honoring them on Father's Day (while finding the balance to tend to your needs as well). I also share a piece that I wrote for my husband 3 years ago on Father's Day. It's a way for me to honor him publicly because so much of his support and love towards me is done in the background. He's the gentle warrior who has my back and helps to build my resilience as we move through this journey. 

 

I hope you enjoy this episode. Sending love to you today and always!

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.

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.
