How do you help a child understand the unfathomable loss of a parent to suicide? Through the heartbreaking story of Stephen "Twitch" Boss, the talented DJ and beloved TV personality, we confront the profound impact that suicide has on families and, in particular, young minds. As we reflect on the chasm left by Twitch's unexpected death in December 2022, we also share personal stories of grappling with grief, emphasizing that the shadow of loss doesn't easily fade with time. Our conversation aims to break down the barriers of stigma surrounding mental health, opening up a much-needed dialogue about the importance of support and understanding in the face of such tragedies.
