AnneMoss’s Books and eBooks | Contact AnneMoss
As one of the top Mental Health Motivational Speakers and suicide prevention speakers, AnneMoss has lived the ultimate tragedy and become an expert on emotional wellness, suicide prevention, and postvention. She uses storytelling and combines lessons learned from losing a son to suicide with proven strategies to cultivate a foundation of wellness for organizational change in workplaces and schools.
Her youngest son, Charles, was the funniest, most popular kid in school. As a teen, he wore the mask of a clown to hide his depression and anxiety and used drugs and alcohol to numb his thoughts of suicide. Ultimately, he became addicted to heroin and took his own life in 2015 at age 20.
AnneMoss’s presentations always start with her powerful story of loss but end with a message of hope and the coping skills she used to heal emotionally.
Authentic and real, Anne Moss teaches through stories and her audiences offer her their full rapt attention– often not moving.
The most devastating loss of her life was a turning point. While it took time to accept that purpose with grace, she has never looked back or regretted that decision.
She helps people build emotional muscle and organizations to build a culture of wellness that builds resilience and saves lives.

In Memory of Charles Aubrey Rogers, 1995-2015
The funniest, most popular kid in high school, Charles Aubrey Rogers, suffered from addiction and depression and died by suicide at age 20. All Anne Moss does is in memory of her younger son, Charles.
I have always sought to find hope and joy in the face of the most devastating loss of my life. I share these emotionally naked stories because many of you are not living in lollipop land with shiny faces and perfect families.
You are part of this family and part of this work. Your comments and notes to me often become topics and you have provided me much-needed emotional support and helped me find healing.
