Homes That Heal | Transform Your Home Into a Health and Wellness Sanctuary

Ep 75: From Crisis to Healing: My Family’s Story of Teen Mental Health


Listen Later

Ep 75 | In this episode, Jen shares a personal story she’s held in her heart for months. It’s a raw look at mental health, family support, and the transformation that happens when a home becomes a true sanctuary for healing.

What began with one unexpected phone call quickly became one of the most emotional seasons her family has ever lived through. Jen walks listeners through the reality of supporting a young adult in crisis, navigating suicidal ideation and identity confusion, and rebuilding emotional steadiness through grounded daily practices, nutrition, community support, and consistent love.

This conversation is steady, compassionate, and honest—meant to meet anyone who has walked alongside someone they’d do anything to keep safe.
