Description

On todays episode of family flowers only I speak to Claire Walsh 

Claire is from Kildare, she is a freediver, year-round sea swimmer and teacher of breathwork courses. She is also author of her book "UNDERWATER"
She lives in Dublin with her husband Boudy. 

Having both discussed early on in their relationship their desire to expand their family by having children they had plenty of dreams and hopes for the future. 
Unfortunately getting pregnant isn’t simple or a given and like thousands of others Claire sadly has navigated the living grief and loss that comes with subfertility commonly known as infertility and the challenges of IVF.

We spoke about searching for a space to fit in to grieve the losses that she feels, about the IVF process and the uncertainty for the future

I hope this episode is helpful to you and that you enjoy our chat

During the pandemic I created a community on Instagram called Grief Ireland. It was following the death of my sister Elaine and her husband Pa. I found Grief to be still a taboo subject, unspoken, and a topic that not many wanted to discuss. Unless of course those who were in "the club no-one wants to be in". But to find those people was difficult. So I went on a mission to open the conversation, to comfort those who mourn, to educate those who don't, to hold space for others to talk about their Grief, Love and Loss and to remember our loved ones and ensure that they would never be forgotten.
