Episode 116: Pregnancy Loss with Guest Dr. Jessica Zucker

Episode notes

Yes, we are a comedy show, but… There is no clever way to say it. This week, Biz and Theresa talk about miscarriages. Theresa shares her experience and together we explore what it’s like to go through a pregnancy loss, or have a friend experiencing pregnancy loss, in a culture that doesn’t seem to offer much in the way of acknowledgment or support. Clinical psychologist Dr. Jessica Zucker, whose focus is on women’s reproductive and maternal mental health, joins us to talk about her own miscarriage and her efforts to make this a less taboo topic with her #IHadAMiscarriage campaign.
