Already a mum to two daughters, Charlie shares her personal experience of miscarrying a third pregnancy. She opens up about the long, emotional process of pregnancy loss whilst parenting, choosing surgical management, the difficult decision to stop trying for another baby, and why grief shouldn't be compared or minimised. The conversation also explores the incredible support she found through friends, family and running, and how setting new goals helped her begin to heal. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & YouTube 👉 Follow the journey and support the cause at marathonsformiracles.com This episode contains sensitive discussions around pregnancy loss and grief.
