The Leftover Pieces: Suicide Loss Conversations

A Daughter's Love; Life After the Suicide Loss of Her Mum


Listen Later

Today I turn the microphone Caro's direction as she sits on the other side of the interview for a change. Many of you know Caro Brookings from her semi-yearly Interview Series. Twice a year Caro holds these amazing speaker series where you can hear 20+ suicide loss experts share their experiences and knowledge. I have been privileged to be a guest speaker all 4 times plus the upcoming one next week, Nov 6-10, 2023.

In her words:
"After my Mum took her life in 2013, I quickly realized that there isn't enough support out there for suicide loss survivors.

I struggled with complex grief, including feelings of guilt. After trying every healing strategy under the sun, I finally found the one which works when I learned all about refuting thoughts and rewiring the brain.

I am now a Certified NeuroCoach and grief coach. I use brain based, science backed methods, as well as drawing from my vast experience, to support my clients find inner peace and even joy again - for good."

Today we get personal in Caro's loss journey. Losing a parent to suicide is a complicated loss of a lifetime that changes a child permanently.

This conversation was a joy to have. I enjoyed getting to know more about Caro's personal journey & I think you will also.

Some of the things Caro & I speak to are: 

  • How the loss of her Mum to suicide impacted her life
  • What did her 'timeline' look like? 
  • What she discovered that changed so she could heal her trauma
  • How she parents her children & talks about her mum to them
  • And so much more...
