The Raw Story of Losing a Father

Season #1 Episode #9

Hear the massive journey Jamie has been on since losing her father to suicide 10 years ago.

Jamie felt like she had to be the strong one for other family members and fiercely started to defend herself from her feelings. It wasn’t until she hit ‘rock bottom’ in a police cell that she realised she didn’t care about herself  - the worse thing had already happened so who cares?

Upon the realisation that although her father was dead, she was still alive, Jamie started to care about herself and look inward at what her father’s suicide had left behind

Speaking now as a 35 year old woman, Jamie has come far and shares her story with realness and honesty - for all of us to know the heaviness and complexity of grief after suicide.

A raw story of pain, complexity and transformation.
