What's Up Wednesday!
In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, this episode of "Born into Silence" shines a light on the experiences of families who have endured the profound heartbreak of losing a baby. This month is dedicated to honoring these often-hidden losses and standing in solidarity with those who carry them. We remember lives that were far too brief and offer a space of compassion and community for those affected.
Joining us is Sadija A. Smiley, an inspiring advocate for grieving families and the founder of Stillborn And Infant Loss Support (SAILS), a nonprofit organization based in Maryland. After the stillbirth of her beloved daughter, Ivyanna Salene, Sadija transformed her grief into a powerful mission, creating a sanctuary of healing for other families navigating similar pain. With her background as an Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist, speaker, and author, Sadija’s journey from mourning mother to supportive leader is a testament to the resilience that can emerge from even the darkest places.
In today’s episode, we explore Sadija's personal story, her work through SAILS, and the importance of community in healing. Tune in as we honor the memories of these cherished lives, hold space for enduring love, and foster a community of understanding and remembrance for all who walk this difficult path.
