In this episode, I’m sharing something really close to my heart: how my dog, Odin, helped me survive one of the hardest seasons of my life. After the stillbirth of my son, I felt completely lost. But Odin gave me a reason to get up, to get outside, and to stick to some kind of routine when everything felt like it had fallen apart.

Then, during my rainbow pregnancy, he was there for me again through all the anxiety and fear. Walking him became a way to breathe, to calm my mind, and to feel a little more grounded. Getting him used to the baby stuff was actually one of the first hopeful steps I took toward preparing again for a baby.

Now, postpartum, Odin is still such a steady comfort. He’s more than just our dog, he’s family. If you’ve ever leaned on a pet through grief or pregnancy after loss, I think you’ll really connect with this one.
