Hi, I’m Sharna, I am a loss mum myself and a mum to a beautiful rainbow baby. I am a projector in human design which means I am here to guide you to a new way of being, thinking, or healing. I know what it is like to personally live through the soul shattering experience of pregnancy loss. Out of my healing, I became a Trauma Informed Coach, Self-healing spiral practitioner and a womb light practitioner. I knew that my experience wasn’t the end of my story and I am here to show you that it isn’t the end of yours. You don’t have to ever find meaning in your loss but there is meaning in your life after loss & you deserve to heal.
On this podcast, you will find what I wish I knew before my pregnancy loss, guest experts expanding on important topics, and overall valuable information about pregnancy loss and healing and recovery after.
I would love to connect further with you on my Instagram: @instituteofhealing_pl or @sharnasouthan and you can also find out more information about The Pregnancy Loss Practitioner Certification here: https://www.sharnasouthan.com/healing-through-loss-blueprint.
