Have you been thinking of sharing your story? Telling yours gives others the courage to share theirs. And telling yours helps you heal, and grow. Stories about recovery, grief from a drug-related loss, or someone who died from mental illness helps break the stigma.
How to share your emotionally naked story? I don’t want it to be a story you have published elsewhere. Here are the guidelines. Let me know if you are ready. And I’ll help edit.
I am an emotionally naked TEDx speaker, and author of the Book, Diary of a Broken Mind. I raised two boys, Richard and Charles, and lost my youngest son, Charles to substance use disorder and suicide June 5, 2015. I help people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse and find life after loss. My motivational, training and workshop topics include suicide prevention, addiction, mental illness, and grief.
As talented and funny as Charles was, letting other people know they matter was his greatest gift. And now the legacy I try and carry forward in my son's memory.
Professional Speaker Website. Trained in ASIST and trainer for the evidence-based 4-hour training for everyone called safeTALK.
