In this deeply moving episode of The Empowered Grief Journey, host Chris Mamone sits down with JoBeth Polley, certified grief recovery specialist, to explore one of the least discussed forms of loss — the grief of infertility.
While many know JoBeth as a young widow, she opens up about another layer of her healing journey: grieving the motherhood she never experienced. With vulnerability and wisdom, she shares how learning to acknowledge that invisible loss became a turning point in her grief recovery and self-acceptance.
Together, they discuss how grief isn’t always about what we’ve lost — sometimes, it’s about what never came to be — and how choosing healing means showing up, seeking support, and learning to carry both visible and invisible pain with courage.
