In this powerful first episode of our three-part series Elephant in the Room: Suicide, hosts Crystal and Trilby open up an honest and compassionate dialogue around one of the most difficult but necessary topics, suicide.

Why are we hearing about suicide more often? Why is it showing up in our own communities? And most importantly, how do we talk about it in a way that breaks stigma and brings hope?

To help us navigate this heavy but vital conversation, we’re joined by our very first guest, licensed therapist and fellow podcaster, Wesley Walker. With his professional insight and down-to-earth perspective, Wesley helps break down mental health barriers, encourages real talk, and offers guidance on how we can show up for ourselves and others.

You are not alone. Let’s break the silence, support each other, and change the conversation.
