Welcome to The Love Well Podcast! We are providing education and empowerment to women who want to improve their health, fitness, and fertility to become the best versions of themselves. As women, there is a lot we don’t know about our own bodies, and we are here to seek answers by learning from experts in women's health and from other women's life experiences. We are making room for conversation around the hard things so that we can grow in faith, love, and patience. No matter what phase of life you are walking through, you have a space here and we are so glad to have you!

DISCLAIMER: MISCARRIAGE DETAILS AND DESCRIPTIVE MEDICAL PROCEDURES In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, we chat with two dear friends of mine Taylor and Mollie Franklin. This past summer, these two went through what is known as a missed miscarriage. In this episode, they are extremely open about sharing their story in hopes that it raises awareness about the sensitive topic of miscarriage and helps those who are going through it or might find themselves in that situation one day. We hear not only from Mollie’s preservative of what it was like going through the miscarriage physically and emotionally but also what it was like for her husband Taylor to walk alongside her and how he experienced the loss.
This intent of episode is not to be sad or to make light of a very heavy topic, but it is to share their story and to hope that in speaking about heavy things that it helps someone feel less alone in their journey or helps give people insight into what someone they love might be going through.
