40 years ago today my big brother, David, took his own li fe at the age of 19.... and I found him. I was a little 8 year old girl. He was an awesome, kind, funny, good looking, well loved guy with many friends, who did great in school and sports. An all around 'boy next door'.
But the pain inside him was stronger.
What? Why? Why weren't we (his family) enough? This shattered our world. It changed my whole life. He was my only father figure so it was like losing a father.
I've know I was a healer/intuitive for most of my life but was not ready to embrace it. I was told I was wrong, how could I 'know' things, I was too sensitive. Society doesn't like woo woo weirdos. So, I pushed it down and hid it. Hiding me.
These past 8 years of doing my personal deep healing work and embracing my authentic self has been amazing (and painful - not always easy!). I'm so grateful I started my healing business 6 years ago. Starting and growing it has been so challenging, healing, rewarding and amazing.
David is the reason WHY I want to help people. I want to help people on their healing journey so they don't make the same decision he did. In 2021 over 48,183 people took their own li fe. If I can help one person ease their pain, I know the world is a better place.
We all have SO many tools to help get through this school of life. A smile. a hug, a kind word, holding the door, sending a funny text, telling someone you love them, making food for someone, playing, laughing.... all could change a person's whole day, or save their life. ❤
