About this listen
Chris Wood and his wife Bethany have faced more heartbreak than most people can imagine, a long road of pregnancy loss that led to the birth of their son Liam, who lived for just 22 hours.
In the months that followed, Chris felt what many bereaved fathers feel: invisible. Isolated. Left out of the grief conversation entirely.
So, he did something about it.
Chris started through Red Nose what is now Australia’s only in-person support group for bereaved dads. He also brought together a group of grieving fathers through a weekly footy club. Not for therapy, not for performance, but for connection. For showing up. For remembering they’re not alone.
In this episode, we talk about Liam. About grief that lingers. About friendship, frustration, and what it means to build something that wasn’t there when you needed it most.
I hope you get as much from the conversation as I did. Enjoy.
