Today --- I am BACK!!!! Life after suicide needs a break sometimes, and I took one. After a (very) trying 2024, I was just spent.... but you can't keep a good (determined) woman down!
As a sort of "Re-Boot" for The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations podcast after taking the last 6 weeks of 2024 "off" I am choosing to 'start over' this way .... Along with this FIRST of 2025, please listen weekly to Down the Rabbit Hole episodes dropped at the start of each week and / or listen daily to the readings from The Daily Stoic-- nuggets as I call them -- of wisdom passed along from Ryan Holiday. Stephen Hanselman and the ancient Greek Philosophers such as Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca.
I hope you will do both. I hope you will consider journaling along with me. I hope it provides some inspiration, even motivation to keep going, to how we do what we do, to why we do what we do in moving forward 'after'...I hope it is a tool that you (like me) might find useful in your life after loss by suicide.
Today specifically I say hello from my 'long winter's nap' (of the past 6 weeks) and say HELLO 2025. I want you to know where I've been and where I am going. And I hope you come along! I have missed you...

I really DO hope you will listen daily & consider journaling along with us in January
