Suicide Experiences Forms - https://airform.ai/p/qCjHWq and https://airform.ai/p/P7hkgv

The first form has questions about suicide that you can answer if you need some guidance. The second form is a freewrite form if you just want to let it all out without answering questions.

Welcome back! It's officially Season 2!

I wanted to make sure that this episode was better quality than others so I hope you enjoy the tweaks that were made. I have the most amazing editor that did his thing and I am so happy with out it turned out!

This episode is all about grief! There is a content warning as there will be a lot of talk about death and a brief mention of suicide (with no detail). I share my experiences with grief as well as information about grief. This is one of two episodes as the next episode will be about moving through grief, so watch out for that one!

I would LOVE to hear your stories of grief. You can share those here: https://forms.gle/qcZou3LAyv99EE4u5

The last episode of Season 1 is here! And it's all about Bipolar Disorder! This disorder is one that changed the course of my life the moment I was diagnosed with it. It's been a wild ride going from knowing nothing about it to analyzing every single thing I do and learning to manage it. I am still learning every day about this disorder and I'm happy to have been able to bring you some information about a greatly misunderstood disorder. Thanks for listening this season and see you next year for Season 2!
