In this powerful conversation, I speak with Lisa Sugarman—a crisis counselor, mental health advocate, and Founder of The HelpHUB™, a free online destination for mental health support and resources. Lisa is also an author, syndicated columnist, and three-time survivor of suicide loss.
She opens up about losing her cousin, father, and a close friend to suicide, and how those experiences reshaped her beliefs, purpose, and passion for mental health advocacy. Together, we explore the complex ways trauma can alter perspective and the daily practices that have helped Lisa transform her pain into purpose.
Highlights from our conversation:
Lisa’s journey reminds us that the way we see the world isn’t fixed—it’s shaped by experience, belief, and intention. Through her storytelling and advocacy, she’s created safe, supportive spaces for others to grieve, learn, and grow.
Whether you’ve experienced suicide loss personally or simply want to understand mental health on a deeper level, this episode will stay with you. I’m honored to share Lisa’s perspective with you.
