A Superwoman Handbook S3 EP7: Shruti Trivedi on Healing After Pregnancy Loss & Letting Go of Guilt

Join host Gillian Utesch on A Superwoman Handbook Podcast as she sits down with pregnancy loss and transformation coach Shruti Trivedi for a deeply honest and compassionate conversation about grief, healing, self-compassion, and the hidden emotional impact of pregnancy loss. After experiencing the heartbreaking loss of three babies over 11 years, Shruti turned her pain into purpose by helping women navigate grief, burnout, and life transitions with support, empathy, and understanding. In this powerful episode, Shruti opens up about the guilt, silence, and self-blame that so many women quietly carry after pregnancy loss — and why healing begins with acknowledging those emotions instead of suppressing them. Together, Gillian and Shruti explore the emotional realities of miscarriage, mental health, relationships, intimacy, and the pressure many women feel to “move on” before they are truly ready. Shruti also shares simple but transformative healing practices including journaling, creating safe emotional spaces, honoring memories, and using her framework of acknowledge, allow, and align to move through grief with kindness instead of shame. Through vulnerable storytelling and practical insight, this episode serves as a reminder that healing is not linear — and that no woman should have to grieve alone. Whether your loss was recent or decades ago, this conversation will help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to honor your story without judgment. This episode is a reminder that your grief deserves compassion, your story deserves space, and your healing deserves time.   Connect with Shruti Trivedi: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tulsihealslifecoaching [https://www.tiktok.com/@tulsihealslifecoaching] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tulsiheals_life_coaching/ [https://www.instagram.com/tulsiheals_life_coaching/] LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/shruti-trivedi-pmp-acc-8793671a [http://www.linkedin.com/in/shruti-trivedi-pmp-acc-8793671a] Email: shruzee@gmail.com [shruzee@gmail.com]   Connect with Gillian: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gumoney/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/gumoney/] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/asuperwomanhandbook/ [https://www.instagram.com/asuperwomanhandbook/] Website: http://brokenglassceilingmarketing.com [http://brokenglassceilingmarketing.com]   Listen & Subscribe: Subscribe to A Superwoman Handbook on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.

Thursday Unplugged | EP1: The Power of Taking Up Space & Being Unapologetically You

In this heartfelt first episode of Thursday Unplugged on A Superwoman Handbook, Patrick Reid opens up about the quiet pressure so many people feel to shrink themselves, stay agreeable, and fit into expectations that were never meant for them.
