The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations

No More "S" Word; A Daughter's Legacy


Listen Later

Today, my conversation is with Jamie Fabroa.  She lost her father Wilmer, to suicide 10 years ago but he is still always with her in heart. Jamie now works to bring awareness to help prevent suicide by furthering conversation and not hiding behind the "s" word!

 Just 4 days before Jamie's 25th Birthday, she would lose her father to suicide. From that moment, Jamie's life would never be the same. The pain became unbearable, unlivable when after a few attempts to take her own life, she courageously found solace, serenity, strength and forgiveness in her own healing through supporting others. Possessing training and certification in SAFEtalk and ASIST, Jamie is a relentless stand on disappearing stigma surrounding the 'S', word.

This is a powerful conversation that will help bring hope that we all can survive! 

You can find Jamie here - Instagram  AND  Facebook - all at  suicidesurvival365

Jamie recommends this documentary 
HEAL with Deepak Chopra

And I recommend the book
SIGNS; The Secret Language of the Universe  by Laura Lynn Jackson

as well as the Docuseries in Netflix called
Surviving Death
