Growing up in a small rural community comes with its own pros and cons. When Danica’s brother Matthew died by suicide in 2016, the pitfalls of a small-town became more evident. Danica discusses isolation, stigma, myths, and the downside of people’s reactions to suicide. She offers solutions for those comforting bereaved individuals as well as what to look for when caring for someone who is struggling.

Roses Radio is a podcast series of open and frank discussions with courageous people who have a lived experience of suicide. We hope the conversations help those who are trying to understand suicide and for many, to understand their own experience. Join us today for a deeply personal and sometimes confronting journey that we hope will leave you feeling inspired and uplifted.
