Can We Rethink Suicide – Before Someone We Love Is Next? | Ep. 34

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Question It., with its *Trigger Warning*, we are once again discussing suicide and the deep emotional pain that often drives people to it. I share a personal story about a childhood friend who died by suicide and explore the crucial distinction between mental health and emotional health. By understanding how unmet emotional needs shape our behaviors, we can shift our approach to well-being and connection. Join me in rethinking how we support ourselves and others in times of distress.

    Key Takeaway: Understanding that emotional pain, not a broken brain, often drives destructive behaviors can help us foster deeper compassion, connection, and support for those struggling—and finally make significant progress toward preventing suicide.

    Peace. Love. Connect.
