Reproductive Journey Counseling & Support

01/22/2026

If you’re a parent, pregnant, postpartum, or navigating infertility or loss, this storm may feel like too much on top of everything else.

A few gentle reminders:
• Simplify where you can
• Stay connected
• Rest (even if sleep is hard)
• Limit doom-scrolling

You don’t have to wait until things are “really bad” to reach out.
Support is available 24/7 if you need it:
📞 988 Su***de and Crisis Hotline
📞 1-833-852-6262 National Maternal Mental Health Hotline
📞 1-800-799-7233 National Domestic Violence Hotline

Be gentle with yourselves and with each other. 🤍

Many of you may have already come across this heartbreaking news, and for many it may have landed with an unexpected wave of sadness, fear, or vulnerability in addition to feelings of grief—especially for those who are pregnant, postpartum, or holding tender hopes around birth.
We take pause to remember and honor Dr. Janell Green Smith—a certified nurse midwife, maternal health advocate, and devoted protector of mothers and babies.
Dr. Janell dedicated her life’s work to caring for birthing people and supporting compassionate maternal care. She showed up for her community with deep intention, courage, and love. Due to complications from the birth of her first child, Dr. Janell passed away—an unimaginable loss. She leaves behind her loving husband and her newborn baby.
Loss like this ripples outward. It can show up as heightened anxiety, unexpected tears, or a feeling of being less steady than usual. If this news feels especially tender for you, your response makes sense.
We hold Dr. Janell’s family & community close in our hearts and honor the legacy she leaves through the lives she touched. 💛

The holiday season may bring uncertainty, moments of stillness, and waves of grief.
Whatever comes, we hope you give yourself permission to feel, pause, ask for space, be held, and honor your grief.
There is no “right” way to grieve.
We're thinking of you and wishing you small pockets of peace. 🤍
