Alexandra Wyman - The Silent Struggle of Those Left Behind by Suicide Artwork

Let's Talk About Grief With Anne

Grief is messy. It's the opposite of linear. It can be dark and wacky, lonely or not, love-filled or seemingly lacking - but it is so very alive. No two people experience this process in quite the same way. These episodes are conversation starters for dealing with dying, death, and grief, part therapy and part storytelling in disguise. They'll shine a light, giving you hope and understanding of how others have managed their grief. Also, they are an insightful guide to life's many losses. You don't have to struggle alone?

Welcome everyone to another show in our journey of exploration into grief. I also welcome anyone watching this interview and those who may have discovered us on YouTube. Yep, you can see us and our guests and peek at the faces behind the voices on YouTube.

Today, we are delving into suicide and the impact it has on those left behind and who are grieving. It'll help us understand this topic a little bit more.

And I'm so grateful to have my guest, Alexandra Wyman, a grief navigator, a speaker, and an author. She also has her own podcast. Her book is called The Suicide Club: What to Do When Someone You Love Chooses Death.

Here's what we talk about:

Alexandra expresses her surprise at rediscovering herself after losing her husband to suicide.
The challenges of the grieving process and the lack of clear signs of suicidal intentions.
Stigma and misconceptions surrounding suicide and the need for connection.
Alexandra's book and mission.
And much more!
