Episode Title: Unmasking Infant Loss - Rebecca Propst's Powerful Story Behind Local Mpact
Guest: Rebecca Propst, Executive Director of Local Mpact & 2025 Woman to Watch

Episode Summary:
In this raw and healing episode of Unmasking The Heart For Change, we sit down with Rebecca Propst—Executive Director of Local Mpact, Forensic Interview Specialist, and a 2025 Woman to Watch. Rebecca shares her deeply personal journey through infant loss, the messy middle of grief, and the powerful purpose that rose from the pain.

Together, we unmask what it really looks like to grieve outside of timelines, how support often comes in silent spaces, and what it means to show up for others when words fall short. If you or someone you love has ever walked through loss, this episode is a sacred space where your grief is not only honored—but given purpose.

In this episode, we explore:

• How infant loss impacted Rebecca’s life and identity
• The founding story of Local Mpact
• The importance of holding space without fixing
• What to say (and not say) to someone grieving
• Building legacy in the name of a lost child
• How Rebecca’s story evolved from couch-bound grief to community leader
• The power of adoption, purpose, and post-traumatic growth
• Why grief doesn’t follow a timeline—and healing doesn’t need a script

Reflection Prompt for Listeners:
Grief doesn’t come with a timeline. Healing doesn’t come with a manual. But sometimes, it starts when someone simply shows up.
Who in your life is grieving something invisible—and how can you let them know they’re not alone in it?
