Welcome to The Joyful Mourning Podcast Episode #34. In this week’s episode I get the honor of spending some time with Jana Bishop. She is a wife and a mom, a photographer and business owner. Jana has walked through so much pain and loss and yet joy just radiates from her voice -- I dare you not to smile in this episode, her joy, even after heartbreak after heartbreak is simply contagious. Listen in as Jana shares her journey of motherhood that has been wrought with loss beginning with her first pregnancy and then years of secondary infertility following the birth of her son Rowan. Jana’s story doesn’t end with a tidy bow that’s all wrapped up yet she speaks with tenderness and grace and like I said before, immense joy. What an encouragement and example she was to me during this interview and I am sure she will be to you as well. DO YOU FEEL ALONE? During our time together Jana says these words: “In order to heal and to grow amidst the pain, it is necessary to have other people you can talk with honestly and know that they’re going to understand what you’re saying without you even having to say it.” If you are looking for those people, the ones you can talk with honestly about how you are doing and know that they will understand -- come join our free online community, The Joyful Mourning Community.
