She has found that with the right tools and support, every woman can have life and happiness after child loss, if they want it. She has 6 children, one of them, Aria, lives in Heaven. Megan lives in Minnesota with her husband of 9 years, Justin. She is passionate about showing what's possible, and continually learning and doing the work in her own life as well.
She shared her story with us about how she and her husband, Justin, lost their 15 month old daughter Aria, and about the trauma and PTSD that came after. She shared her journey of healing and how she then turned to grief coaching to help other women.
She believes in post traumatic growth. That it’s possible to have a life that’s better than before.
She says, “I support grieving moms in being able to discover life again to be able to instead of just surviving everyday instead of living under the mask, instead of just functioning everyday but not truly living. I help them connect with their bodies and their emotions and be able to move through grief in a way that I think a lot of people don’t think is possible.”
