Conversations That Help Prevent Teen Suicide

Today's guest is Kari Eckart from Robbie's Hope foundation. Kari and her husband, Jason, are on a mission to end teen suicide and empower kids so that their voices are heard when they are struggling. Kari shares the loss of her son Robbie, experiences of "hold on, pain ends" (HOPE), and the ways Robbie's Hope Foundation helps teens feel seen and heard through suicidal ideation and other life challenges.

Kari speaks of resources, shares vulnerability, and discloses alarming statistics that make you realize more can be done for adults to be available for kids and their life challenges.

I'm grateful to have had this conversation with Kari. It helped me experience some healing when I thought about a childhood friend who ended his life. Hopefully, it will help you too. Not only in your own personal healing, but also in taking action to help kids and adults connect in conversations about painful, emotional, and vulnerable things in life.
