Barry Rose - The Conversations We Never Had
In this deeply personal and emotional episode, host Heather sits down with her husband Barry Rose for an honest conversation about baby loss from a man’s perspective. Together, they open up about the heartbreak of losing seven babies, the silent grief men often carry, and the conversations they perhaps never truly had at the time. From feeling pressure to stay strong, to navigating pain privately while supporting a partner through unimaginable loss, this episode shines a light on the emotional reality many fathers and partners experience behind closed doors. This raw and heartfelt conversation explores grief, trauma, relationships, emotional survival, healing, and the impact baby loss can have on both people in a relationship in very different ways.
