Happy and Childless

Mini Series Episode 2 - Can you Find Acceptance?

Helen Gallagher Season 1 Episode 17

In this second episode of the 3 part series on Grief, Karin Enfield de Vries and myself discuss acceptance of our childless not by choice situation. Both of our stories are very different but there is so much commonality in our emotions, journey to acceptance and future outlook.

We explore the next stage in the journey and ask if we can or need to reach acceptance in order to move forward. Karin was diagnosed with cancer in 2011 and underwent a radical hysterectomy which threw Karin into being permanently childless not by choice. She uses her own experience to counsel others navigating this very difficult journey. Her words, energy and authenticity are truly heart warming.
