The Sucky Sisterhood Podcast: Interviews with Miscarriage and Infant Loss Survivors
The Sucky Sisterhood Podcast: Interviews with Miscarriage and Infant Loss Survivors (formerly Slaying The Stigma) is a series focused on changing the narrative of miscarriage and infant loss, one voice at a time. We highlight women and men who vulnerably share their perspective, their heart and their stories. By normalizing the conversation of pregnancy loss, we are collectively encouraging those in their healing journey and educating others who are unfamiliar with the issues surrounding baby loss.
The Sucky Sisterhood Podcast helps loss moms and their allies overcome isolation and stigma, so that they can reshape the narrative surrounding baby loss together. This podcast is part of a bigger movement called Gathering Hope, where we empower women to grieve & celebrate the lives they lost alongside other mothers. Gathering Hope is a nonprofit based in Texas, reaching women across the country through our national loss mom conference, Wave of Light ceremony, workshops, social media, our Timely Tender Tote program and this podcast. In each episode, we sit down with survivors, doctors, mental health professionals, partners, and more to share their stories, insights, and expertise. From the raw emotions of grief to the resilient spirit of hope, we explore every facet of the pregnancy loss experience.To learn more about Gathering Hope, connect with us at www.SuckySisterhood.com.

Slaying the Stigma with Justina Oldehoff
Settle in for the intimate story of Justina Oldehoff and her son, Carter. Born fighting, Carter's life was the catalyst for Justina to care for other NICU and bereaved families. In this interview, Justina is normalizing the complex feelings of bereaved moms. She's also open about the emotionally complex experience of another high-risk pregnancy after loss, while simultaneously grieving for Carter. Listen as she's honest about how brutal grief can be, while beautifully weaving hope into her story of trauma and loss.
Justina is a mom to two preemie boys, 24-weeker Carter in heaven and 29-weeker Aron who is a happy, healthy two-and-a-half-year-old, and wife to Dan of 13 years. She is a healthcare administrator in Colorado who loves to travel, write, read, and do yoga. Through their foundation, Carter's Cause, her mission is to provide hope, encouragement, and resources to NICU parents, bereaved parents, and their support systems.
