Ep. 47 - Suicide brought them together | Briana and Michael

Ep. 47 - Suicide brought them together | Briana and Michael

Briana and Michael’s story is an example of how empathy can break the barriers of judgment and fear. The couple had been exchanging messages on a dating app not knowing that both their lives had been touched by suicide: she had recently attempted and he had lost his wife a few years prior. We would think that as soon as they learned about their shared stories, it would be the end of it, but what happened was the opposite. I recommend listening to it until the end.

Briana contacted me through my website because the couple wanted to share their story so that others could maybe hear a different narrative that usually accompanies suicide, which is that it fosters loneliness and keeps people apart. I’m sure this episode will bring hope to many of my listeners.

Thank you both for trusting me to be the outlet of your great message of compassion and love.
