21. My Battle with Suicidal Thoughts After Child Loss


Listen Later

Losing a child brings unimaginable pain, and for many grieving mothers, the weight of that loss can lead to overwhelming thoughts of wanting to be with their child again. If you've ever felt this way, please know—you are not alone, and you are not broken. In this deeply personal episode, I share my own experience with suicidal thoughts after losing Katie, why these feelings are more common than we realize, and how to recognize when they become dangerous. If you're struggling to find a reason to keep going, this conversation will remind you that hope and healing are still possible, even in the darkest moments.

What You’ll Gain from This Episode:

✔️ The painful truth about suicidal thoughts in grief and why they happen

✔️ How to tell the difference between normal grief thoughts and serious warning signs

✔️ The mindset shift that kept me here—and why I’m grateful I stayed

✔️ Practical, real-life strategies to help you cope when you feel like you can’t keep going

✔️ Why your presence matters more than you realize—to your family, your child’s memory, and the world
