This episode is dedicated to Michelle's beloved daughter Alaska, who would have been 3 years old at the time of this recording. There is no foot too small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world and we will always remember her.
Please note that we do talk about death, suicide and depression in this episode, which we know can be distressing. So if you need resources or support go to beyondblue.org or for 24 hour free counselling in Australia, the number for Lifeline is 13 11 14, please look after yourself.
Michelle is a budding influencer with a #vanillagirl aesthetic. You could never think that such a petite, bubbly and vibrant young lady is a mother of two, who has experienced a traumatic event such as a still-birth. Navigating all the grief and changes in her transition into adulthood, we couldn’t imagine a more harrowing experience.
Add to that a series of grieving, difficulties concieving and relationship anxieties coupled with the pandemic, life did not seem like it had a light at the end of the tunnel for her. We are so grateful that Michelle found the strength to continue her fight to be with us today to share her story to the world. Although this episode contains some dark themes, Michelle was able to laugh (and cry) as she shares her experience with motherhood and her fashion content creating journey. This week's episode is one of our favourites as it is so raw and enlightening. We highly recommend listening to this!
