Jami Crist has lived through the kind of heartbreak most people can’t imagine — and somehow, she’s turned it into her superpower.
After four pregnancy losses — including a termination at 17 weeks, miscarriages, and a traumatic loss at home — Jami realized there was just a gapping hole when it came to pregnancy loss support.
In this episode, Jami shares her full story — from being adopted by her aunt at age five, to the patterns of instability that shaped her approach to motherhood, to the painful, relentless losses that nearly broke her.
But what she’s built out of the wreckage is extraordinary.
She co-authored The Losses We Keep, an anthology of stories from women who’ve walked the same path — giving voice to the grief no one knows how to talk about.
We also get into:
⚡️ What it’s really like to parent after loss
⚡️ The pressure to “bounce back” at work
⚡️ Why most companies still don’t know how to support employees through miscarriage or stillbirth
⚡️ And what Jami wants every manager, friend, and family member to know
This one is about loss — yes.
But it’s also about legacy.
And the power of saying, “Me too,” when it matters most.
