🎧 Episode Summary:
Lisa and Gretchen close out Season 2 with deep reflections on every episode, highlighting how each conversation impacted them and their community. From powerful discussions about language, grief, guilt, and caregiver burnout to underrepresented topics like suicide in the workplace and reverse grieving, this recap offers a compassionate look at what it means to survive—and thrive—after loss.
✨ Lessons Learned:
- Language matters: Say "died by suicide," not "committed."
- Grief has many faces—some look like guilt, others like rituals or silence.
- Mental health in the workplace is non-negotiable.
- Being a survivor isn't a destination—it’s a continual process of healing, connection, and advocacy.
