On today’s episode, Dewey sits down with Candace aka Candy, a social worker, therapist, and creative at heart, and Jaylen aka JP, a father, photographer, and creative, to close out Suicide Prevention Month with an honest and personal conversation about mental health.
Candy and JP share their personal experiences with suicidal ideation and what it looked like to find light while navigating some of their darkest moments. They also talk about coping, family dynamics, asking for help, and how we can show up for the people in our lives who may feel like life no longer matters.
You never really know what someone is carrying. People are walking around every day hanging on by a thread. Be kind. Be intentional. And sometimes, just be quiet enough to listen.
Tap in as they prescribe you with a dose of realness.
If you or someone you know is struggling or needs support, call or text 988 to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
