In this episode, Monique opens up about the quiet and complicated place where gratitude meets grief.
She never imagined she’d become a mother, but life had other plans. After a beautiful first pregnancy came an unexpected loss — not of a child, but of choice. The ability to try again was taken from her, leaving a space she didn’t know she’d one day ache to fill.
Through honesty and reflection, Monique shares what it feels like to live between what is and what might have been — how she’s learned to honor the twinge that still shows up, to find peace in the present, and to give thanks even when her heart still remembers what was lost.
This is her story of gratitude and grief, loss and love, and the quiet triumph of choosing joy anyway.
Her story. Her strength. Her triumph.
