Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month

Dear Readers,

I have been so busy since my last post promoting and sharing my new book: The Baby Dream Learning to Live with Infertility and Loss.

I had my book Launch on the 17th of September at Avid Reader Bookstore; during World Childless Week, and connected with many beautiful women and men who are childless not by choice and/or work with women in this area. 

It was so special to be with my tribe and to feel validated and understood in sharing the message of healing after loss.

If you missed it you can watch now at:

I was then approached my the beautiful soul that is Sikhumbuzo Dube, from Shunem Care in Africa, and asked to join him for a chat about childlessness on his YouTube show: The Bold, The Brave, The Beautiful.

As well as celebrating my beautiful son on the 15th of October by lighting a candle at 7pm and saying his name to honour Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day I have also commissioned a beautiful artist to create a family portrait of my husband and I holding our son. It is still in creation but I can't wait to share it with you all on completion.

A very busy few months whilst also supporting a big case load of counselling clients with their grief and loss work.

Until next month,

Love, light and blessings,

Narelle xx

Sharing my new story about Infertility and Loss.

Dear Readers,

My new book was released last month and I have been busy sharing it with others. It has been such an honour to connect with so many of you who can relate to my story of infertility and loss. Yes, some of our connections have brought tears but readers have found it so validating to know they are not alone in their grief. 

One reader shared this feedback after reading my book: 

'I just finished your book. Wow, wow and wow! I couldn't put it down! Thank you for sharing such a personal journey for you and Bret! I cried and smiled throughout the beautifully written words...It certainly brought some feelings to the surface that I hadn't felt in a long time. Knowing that these feelings are natural when life doesn't go as I had hoped is reassuring that I'm not alone feeling the way I do'. Leanne.

Mind, Body, Spirit Festival in Darling Harbour

I have also been lucky enough to talk with Stav, Abby and Matt about my book on b105 Brisbane Radio station this month. I am so grateful that they were happy to use their platform to talk about such an important topic.

You can catch the interview here if you missed it:
