Bethany's Story
Bethany lost her newborn daughter, Lillian Ember, in 2013, a loss that forever changed how she sees herself and the world. She shares that a part of her felt like it died with her daughter, and even years later, she struggles to recognize the joyful, fearless person she once was. Although she is receiving counseling, she has avoided grief support groups and often isolated herself. Bethany hopes the retreat will help her find freedom from some of her pain and learn to embrace joy again, without feeling that healing means forgetting her daughter.
