In this episode of Raw Empowerment, I am joined by Danielle Chacon in which the two of us share our stories that brought us together. We both have lost a Loved one to suicide. Throughout the episode we acknowledge the unmatched, crippling grief that overwhelms you when you loose someone to suicide. But, we have also seen the sprouting inspirational life and energy that can come from living a life honoring their names and living for them. Danielle takes a monumental step of courage in this space to hold her grief, tell her story for one of the first times, and cultivate community. By sharing these stories we can continue to recognize that we are never alone and that healing even the deepest wounds is possible with a safe space and community to release. We hope this episode brings that release to anyone who needs it and empowers you to discover the things that bring forth your inspirational life energy.
