Episode 32: Honoring Life, Love, and Loss — with Carol Belmont

In this deeply moving episode of Via Love and Evolution, one of our very first guests, the wonderful and inspiring Carol Belmont, returns to share her story and raise awareness around a profoundly sensitive topic: suicide.

Before listening, we invite you to take a moment to check in with your most tender parts and offer yourself the care you may need.

Carol shares with us about the loss of her father to suicide—a story told with raw honesty, immense love, and the courage to turn pain into purpose. Just as she did in her first appearance (Episode 7, Monsters Are Everywhere), Carol shows up real and fully human, navigating the depths of grief while channeling her experience into advocacy, awareness, and compassion.

Through her story, Carol reminds us of the importance of recognizing the signs, seeking help, and nurturing safe, supportive connections. Together, we reflect on our own experiences and the shared hope that by speaking openly, we can help dissolve stigma and make conversations about mental health and suicide prevention a part of collective healing.

You are not alone. You are valued. You are loved.
