In this raw and honest conversation, I sit down with Ananya, a workplace wellbeing and pregnancy loss specialist who bridges the gap between clinical science and soulful healing.
With a PhD in Reproductive Biology and a background in trauma-informed breathwork, Ananya brings a unique perspective to a topic often shrouded in silence. We explore her experiences and the biological reality of loss, the cultural nuances within the South Asian community, and how to rebuild trust with a body that can feel like it has failed you. Whether you are navigating your own journey of loss, supporting a loved one, or looking to improve workplace culture, this episode offers a gentle holding space for all.
