Grief Is Not a Mental Illness. But Some Grief Needs More Support.

Épisode 98

jeudi 10 septembre 2026 • Durée 44:04

But grief can exist alongside depression, anxiety, PTSD, PMADs, and other mental health concerns, and sometimes the hardest part for a perinatal professional is knowing when someone needs more.

In this episode, Vallen breaks down five experiences that can occur after pregnancy or infant loss:

Normal acute grief
Traumatic grief
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders
PTSD
Prolonged grief disorder

We also talk about what doulas, nurses, midwives, postpartum professionals, and other non-diagnosing providers should actually watch for, including function, safety, escalation, isolation, duration, and substance use.

And most importantly: how do you refer someone for mental health support without making the referral feel like abandonment?

You'll leave this episode with practical language you can use, a clearer understanding of professional scope, and one simple assignment:

Build your referral list before you need it.

The Baby Died. The Mother Still Gave Birth. | What Grief-Informed Perinatal Care Really Means

Épisode 97

mardi 1 septembre 2026 • Durée 16:29

When a baby dies, everyone understands that a family is grieving.

But somewhere in our healthcare system, we often forget something incredibly important:

Someone still gave birth.

Their body is still postpartum. Their hormones still change. Their milk may still come in. Their family still has to figure out how to go home, care for other children, return to work, navigate relationships, and somehow live inside a reality they never expected.

And too often, professional support ends at discharge.

In Episode 97, I'm introducing the next chapter of this podcast, and the reason Pregnancy, Loss and Motherhood has become the Grief-Informed Perinatal Care Podcast.

This isn't simply a podcast about my story anymore.

It's about the practice.

It's about what doulas, nurses, midwives, therapists, newborn care specialists, chaplains, hospital teams, and other perinatal professionals can do differently when grief enters the room.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why grief-informed care and trauma-informed care are not the same thing
The massive gap between hospital bereavement care and what happens after discharge
Why postpartum care cannot disappear because a baby died
What it really means to provide family-centered care after pregnancy or infant loss
Why partners, siblings, grandparents, and the larger family system matter
The importance of continuity of care from hospital to home
Why professional grief, secondary trauma, and burnout belong in this conversation
What my own stillbirth experience taught me about the enormous impact one provider can have
The difference between providers who avoided my grief and the ones who helped me survive it
One question every professional should answer before a bereaved family leaves their care

Your Grief-Informed Takeaway

Before the next bereaved family leaves your care, ask:

Start Here: What Is Grief Informed Perinatal Care?

Épisode 96

jeudi 20 août 2026 • Durée 02:39

What happens after the baby dies, and why does care so often stop when a family leaves the hospital?

Welcome to Grief Informed Perinatal Care, a podcast for doulas, nurses, therapists, birth workers, postpartum professionals, caregivers, and anyone supporting families through pregnancy and infant loss.

I’m Vallen Webb, founder of Evelyn James & Company, and this work is deeply personal and professional for me. In this trailer, I’m sharing why this podcast exists, what grief-informed perinatal care actually means, and why families deserve continuity of care from hospital to home throughout the first year after loss.

We’ll talk honestly about pregnancy and infant loss, grief, trauma, postpartum recovery, maternal mental health, partners, siblings, pregnancy after loss, professional boundaries, provider wellbeing, and the things our systems still aren’t getting right.

Because the baby may have died.

The need for care did not.

Follow Grief Informed Perinatal Care so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

The In-Between Self: What Grief Teaches You About Who You Are Now

Épisode 94

mardi 9 décembre 2025 • Durée 15:22

Episode Title: The In-Between Self: What Grief Teaches You About Who You Are Now

Episode Summary:

In this episode of The Pregnancy Loss and Motherhood Podcast, Today I’m sharing three truths that changed me after losing my daughter Evelyn, truths that helped me breathe again, helped me make the choice to keep going, and helped me understand that identity after loss is not about going back—it’s about becoming.

In this episode, we explore:

How motherhood doesn’t begin or end with a heartbeat
Why your identity feels shattered after loss
The quiet, invisible, misunderstood reality of life after baby loss
The power of narrative (and how trauma forces us to rewrite our story)
Why you're not broken—you’re becoming someone new
How grief shapes you, but does not define you

This is for you if you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought, “I don’t know who I am anymore,” or if guilt, softness, anger, jealousy, or numbness has made you question who you’re becoming after your baby died.

Take a breath with me. You don’t have to have it all figured out.

You just have to be here.

Through stories of resilience, creativity, and personal loss, she offers listeners heartfelt lessons on reclaiming power, finding healing through creativity, and embracing both grief and joy at the same time.

How childhood and parental relationships shape the way we see ourselves
Deborah’s story of illness, loss, and rediscovering her voice through creativity
Tools for navigating grief in all its forms—whether loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a dream
The healing power of creativity, joy, and duality (wailing and wonder at the same time)

This conversation is a reminder that you are inherently valuable, no matter what you’ve been through—and that even in grief, creativity and love can bring you back to yourself.
