Breaking the Silence: Addressing The Impacts of Mental Health on Our Community
In this poignant episode, we dive into a topic that often remains veiled in silence but is undeniably present in the fabric of our lives – the impact of mental health struggles on our faith, loved ones, and communities.
I sit down with three incredible individuals who graciously share their personal journeys, shedding light on the profound ways suicide has touched their lives. They open their hearts to reveal the struggles, the pain, but most importantly, the resilience that has emerged from their experiences.
Throughout this episode, our guests implore us to break the silence. The importance of fostering an open dialogue surrounding mental health and suicide is too profound to ignore. By sharing their stories, they encourage others to speak up, listen, and be heard.
Meet our guests:
Alicia - A strong and faithful woman who lost her husband to suicide 7 years ago.
Lauren - A wife and mother of three that lost her father at age 13 to suicide.
Mike - A youth counselor who lost a close friend at age 15 to suicide. Michael is a practicing therapist at The Empowerment Group LLC. michael@bestempowermentgroup.
