Episode One: Medical Misogyny: "At Least it's just a miscarriage" with Keira Rumble
Welcome to Episode 1 of The Miscarriage Rebellion. Today we focus on the medical misogyny that many women face when experiencing pregnancy loss. For too long women's feelings around pregnancy loss have been dismissed, and their pain and suffering has not been treated with the care and empathy it deserves.
In this episode, we are joined by Krumbled Food Founder and longtime supporter of Pink Elephants, Keira Rumble. Keira generously shares her pregnancy loss story and the medical misogyny she, unfortunately, experienced throughout her journey.
