Today, I go "down the rabbit hole" again.  I specifically wanted to talk to you about why I do this podcast; why I do all of the things I do in the area of suicide loss and grief. In the simplest version I could just say "because I lost my son Alex to suicide" and while that is of course the catalyst, my motivation and reasons run so far beyond that. Thank you for giving me a safe space to share and for listening - because connecting with other loss survivors, means more than I can say. If I can provide hope, or comfort, or shred of healing to even one of you... that is why I do this. if you get to know Alex even a little through me ... that too, is why I do this.

So, as I share in this episode, IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS (no later than Sept 15)  my website "The Leftover Pieces; Rebuilding You" will be LIVE and that means my first coaching options will be available. The first (3 month) group is planned to begin Sept 29,  so stay tuned and then there will be a new group start every 3 months.  There WILL be limited spots in each group so let me know if you want on the notify list! These groups will be one part community, one part hope/healing. I believe these two things are intertwined for us in the earlier stages of grief especially.

This coaching has been a long time in coming grievers.  I knew, in my heart,  that this was my WHY about a year and a half ago … then I set out on the next stage of my healing/learning journey. I am so, so ready to be able to serve this community in an expanded capacity. I have gained a lot through my lived experiences, but also through my certifications (with more to come). Please DM me on Instagram or email me at anytime [email protected]

The website will be at www.theleftoverpieces.com  (naturally, right?)
Keep an eye out - even book mark it & check back in a few weeks (there IS a holding page with "coming soon" there now) !!
