    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.

  • Episode 87.0: Stop All That Crying
    On today’s episode, Dewey sits with Qu, a therapist, private practice owner, and professor, for an important conversation in recognition of Suicide Prevention Month. They dive into mental health in the Black community, the “stop all that crying” mentality, and the ways men are often taught to suppress their emotions instead of talking about what they’re going through.
    They also unpack the stigma around therapy, why men’s mental health deserves more space and attention, and what therapy can actually provide. They also talk about vulnerability, feeling safe, asking for help, and the importance of having conversations that could potentially save a life.
    If you or someone you know is struggling or needs support, you’re not alone. Call or text 988 to connect with the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
