130 ~ Uterine Cancer, IVF & Becoming a Mum Against the Odds with Claire Steinke

In this episode of Before You Bloom, I’m joined by Claire Steinke for a deeply honest conversation about cancer, fertility, motherhood, and rebuilding life after unimaginable uncertainty. At just 29 years old, Claire was diagnosed with uterine cancer and suddenly forced to confront one of her greatest fears, the possibility that she may never be able to have children. Faced with the recommendation of a radical hysterectomy, Claire instead chose to undergo an experimental treatment in the hope of preserving her fertility, despite there being no guarantees it would work. In this conversation, Claire opens up about navigating cancer treatment while simultaneously pursuing fertility treatment on her own, the loneliness that came with that experience, and the emotional toll of carrying so much uncertainty at once. We also talk about her difficult pregnancy, giving birth to her son at just 26 weeks, and the mental and emotional impact of spending weeks beside her baby in the special care nursery while trying to process everything her body and mind had endured over the previous 18 months. Claire’s story is one of extraordinary strength, hope, and perseverance! 💗 Thank you so much for being here on this adventure with me! 💗- Hayley xo ✨ Find us on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@beforeyoubloom⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/beforeyoubloom/?hl=en]✨ 🎧⭐ Follow us on :⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/before-you-bloom/id1756021293] 🎧⭐ Follow us on :⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://open.spotify.com/show/7IkDCmK17det8xBgTFWB54?si=Js2HYQVsTg6nfP5W4_-BFQ] 💗 Visit our : ⁠⁠Website⁠⁠ [https://www.beforeyoubloom.com/] The Before You Bloom Podcast is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation.

In this episode of Before You Bloom, I’m joined by Marie Weidlich, an ADHD advocate, award-winning marketer, and someone whose story goes far beyond the success people see on the surface. Marie opens up about growing up with relentless bullying, navigating life with undiagnosed ADHD, and the emotional impact of spending years feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, and like she never quite fit in.

128 ~ Alexa Leary : From a Traumatic Brain Injury to 3 Paralympic Gold Medals

In this episode of Before You Bloom, I’m joined by Alexa Leary, a Paralympic gold medallist, world record holder, and someone whose story goes far deeper than the highlights you may have seen. At just 19, Alexa’s life changed in an instant after a devastating cycling accident left her with a severe traumatic brain injury. She spent months in hospital and rehabilitation, relearning how to walk, talk, and navigate a completely new version of herself. In this conversation, we go beyond the medals and achievements to explore what that journey actually looked like, the grief of losing her old identity, the emotional and mental challenges of recovery, and the reality of living with a brain injury. And then, we explore the turning point, how Alexa found her way back to the water, and what it meant to go from survival to standing on the podium at the 2024 Summer Paralympics. It’s a reminder that resilience isn’t about pushing through, it’s about learning to rebuild, in your own time, in your own way. If you’ve ever felt like your life has been turned upside down, or you’re learning to navigate a version of yourself you didn’t expect… this conversation will stay with you.

127 ~ Death Literacy Explained: How to Navigate Grief, Loss & End-of-Life with Baci Hillyer

I’m joined by Baci Hillyer, a Death Literacy Advocate, certified end-of-life doula, speaker, and the founder of Deadicate, a movement dedicated to reclaiming death as a natural, human, and communal experience. Baci’s work is not just professional, it’s profoundly personal. As a teenager, she experienced the unimaginable loss of both her father and her brother in a short space of time. These moments shaped her understanding of grief, mortality, and what it truly means to live a meaningful life. For over 37 years, Baci has walked alongside grief, both her own and others’, supporting people through loss with compassion, honesty, and deep care. In this conversation, we explore what “death literacy” really means and why it’s so important in a world that often avoids talking about death altogether. Baci shares her personal story of loss, the challenges of navigating grief at such a young age, and the lessons she’s carried with her through decades of working in palliative care. This episode is gentle, grounding, and incredibly important. It’s a reminder that grief is not something to “fix,” but something to honour and that in learning to face mortality, we can learn how to live more fully. If you’ve ever experienced loss, are supporting someone who has, or simply want to deepen your understanding of life and death, this conversation is for you.

126 ~ From Survival Mode to Calm: Breathwork for Nervous System Healing with Brooke Elliston

In this episode of Before You Bloom, I’m joined by Brooke Elliston, former lawyer turned breath educator and author of The Breath Reset Plan. Brooke shares how our breath shapes our nervous system, why so many of us are stuck in survival mode, and how small shifts can create powerful change. We explore the connection between breath, stress, and emotional regulation, along with Brooke’s five pillars for resetting the nervous system: Awareness, Connection, Sleep, Gut, and Movement. If you’ve been feeling anxious, burnt out, or disconnected from your body, this episode will leave you feeling grounded, empowered, and curious about the incredible tool you carry with you every single day, your breath.
