What do you do when motherhood breaks your heart? In this tender and powerful episode of The Being Brave Tour, Charlie Hoffman shares her story of walking through unimaginable grief—the loss of her son, Mathias Daniel, who was diagnosed with anencephaly during pregnancy. At just 24, Charlie had to make the impossible decision to end his suffering before birth, all while navigating life as a Navy mother and caring for her first child. But this is not just a story of loss—it’s a story of grace, healing, and rediscovering joy. Charlie speaks with raw honesty about releasing guilt, honoring her son’s brief life, and welcoming her rainbow baby, Gabriel, a year later. Through her experience, she found the strength to keep moving forward and the courage to embrace joy again. Charlie is also a featured author in the anthology Being Brave: #Celebrating1mWomen and Their Courage.
