For some, loss happens as singular experiences. For others like Tony Lynch, it seems to last a lifetime. From witnessing traumatic death at an early age, to living the life of the gangs, homelessness, and death of loved ones, Tony shares how he has been shaped by all of his experiences and now uses them to help others. In this episode he sums up his experiences when he says, “I can tell people now, the journey was worth it…and what I mean by that, it gave me the opportunity to serve.”
Bio
Tony Lynch is the founder of the non-profit Memories of Us ltd...grief support for men, Global grief Network, and host of the Grief Let's Talk About It podcast. He started Memories of us in 2019 after experiencing some significant losses: his son in 2016 and his mother in 2018.
Leaving him with almost no family and no one to help navigate this experience, Tony's grief became heavy and conflicting. On one hand he was taught to suppress not express, and on the other his heart was torn into a million pieces. Eventually with the choices he was making, he lost everything and planned out his suicide. He did finally seek help only to find there's was little or no support for men. He soon realized the importance of having a place where men can express their feelings, talk openly, but most importantly be supported by other men who have had similar experiences. As we all know, grief is a lonely personal walk, and just because it is personal Tony feels it's a reason to not do it alone.
