What is Motherhood: A Series For Women Who Have Experienced Pregnancy or Infant Loss | Part 4 | Episode 123
This is part 4 of our special 4 part series called: What is Motherhood. All month long we have been talking about what motherhood means to the woman who has experienced pregnancy or infant loss. In this round table conversation I talk with five women, each with different types of loss from as recent as 6 months ago all the way to 35 years ago -- these women share honestly about their journey of loss, grief, and finding hope.
In this week’s episode, part 4 of our 4 part series, I ask my guests three questions:
What does being a mom teach you about yourself?
What does being a mom teach you about God?
What encouragement do you have for other moms in the thick of motherhood and grief?
Their answers to those questions are incredibly insightful and challenging and hope-filled and honest.
If you missed any part of this series, make sure to listen go back and listen to those so you can get to know each of these women and their unique motherhood stories -- this series starts at episode 120 so just skip back a couple episodes to start from the beginning.

We created a workbook that goes along with this podcast series to give you an opportunity to answer these questions for yourself as you consider your own motherhood story. No matter where you are in your grief journey I think this tool will be a tangible way to process your experience and find healing in a new way.

An important update about The Joyful Mourning Podcast
For the last 122 episodes we have shown up weekly, and in some seasons we have shown up daily, to meet you in your grief, to walk alongside you, to bring you comfort, hope and reminders of joy. To remind you that you are not alone.
In order to continue to serving you best, to continue creating resources, not just for the podcast but here on the blog, in our community and in our shop, we have decided to move to a seasonal format. That means, moving forward we will have two seasons a year, a spring season, likely February thru May and a fall season, August thru November, taking a short break through June and July, and potentially December and January as well.
We are hopeful this decision will enable us to continue to create the most helpful and hope-filled resources for you possible.
Our last episode of this season will be episode 123 which will air on May 27 but go ahead and mark your calendar for August 5, when the first episode of next season will air.
We are already so excited about what we have planned for next season!
