⁠Jessica Zucker⁠ is a Los Angeles-based psychologist specializing in reproductive health and the author of the award-winning book I HAD A MISCARRIAGE: A Memoir, a Movement. Jessica is the creator of the viral #IHadaMiscarriage campaign.

She opens up about the traumatic miscarriage that reshaped her life and career. In this powerful episode, she shares raw details of her experience, the unspoken grief of pregnancy loss, navigating breast cancer, and the societal silence that surrounds women’s trauma. We dive into the emotional complexity of self-blame, recovery, the partner’s role, and how her personal loss transformed her clinical work. A moving, must-watch conversation on grief, resilience, and the courage to speak out.

DEAD Talks with David Ferrugio engages death a little bit differently. Each new guest shares their experience with grieving or perspective on death in a way that shatters the “don’t talk about death” taboo. Grief doesn't end; it evolves. Having lost his father on September 11th when he was 12, he learned the importance of discussion and sharing other people's stories. DEAD Talks Podcast hopes to make it a little easier to talk about grief, loss, death, mourning, trauma, or whatever it may be. You may cry, but you also may laugh. ⁠
