Navigating Stillbirth with “The Grief Closet” Founder Andrea Meyers

On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Andrea Meyers.</p><br /></p>Andrea is a stay-at-home mother to six children. In 2021, her fifth baby, daughter Terra, died shockingly and unexpectedly during labor at 38 weeks — which is considered a full term — and was delivered stillborn. Andrea struggled deeply with the death of her daughter and quickly realized how much grief and devastating loss impacted her life, particularly how society often minimizes baby loss. She found it hard to participate in her local community, and everyday tasks became challenging. She noticed how uncomfortable people became when she or her children mentioned Terra's death in conversation.</p><br /></p>With a background as a preschool teacher and family advocate, Andrea knew that talking about grief was important for her and her living children, who were also grieving the loss of their sister. After a year of processing the grief and trauma of stillbirth, Andrea made connections through social media and began speaking with other mothers who had experienced similar losses, as well as with stillbirth prevention advocates. Through speaking out and writing online, she found a therapeutic outlet, which led to the idea of creating shirts and other items for the grieving, featuring popular phrases and sayings from the perspective of those experiencing grief.</p><br /></p>The Grief Closet has served as a way to give back to the community and acknowledge others' grief, while also providing Andrea with an outlet for her own pain. It has been the one thing that has felt fulfilling since her daughter's death.</p><br /></p>Learn More About Andrea & The Grief Closet: </p>Website: TheGriefCloset.com </p>Facebook: The Grief Closet </p>Instagram: @TheGriefCloset & @GrievingLikeAMother </p><br /></p>Learn More About DDJF:</p>Website: DDJF.org</p>Instagram: @DeeDeeJacksonFoundation </p>Facebook: Dee Dee Jackson Foundation </p>LinkedIn: Dee Dee Jackson Foundation </p>X: @DDJFoundation </p><br /></p>Leave a podcast review: </p><br /></p>Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-power-of-love-show/id1282931846</p><br /></p>Spotify Podcasts: https://open.spotify.com/show/6X6zGAPmdReRrlLO0NW4n6?si=koXehESfSrSwA-zWi2vf-w</p><br /></p>Can’t make the live-stream?
