Trigger warning: Today's episode contains sensitive and potentially triggering content, including references to suicidal ideation.Do you have trouble hearing your inner voice? Do you listen to your inner authority, your inner knowing, your soul? Do you know what it sounds like? In this episode, I explore what it means to listen to your soul, and what happens when we repeatedly ignore our inner truth. I also address the shame and societal stigma of mental health and suicidal ideation. My deepest intention is to create a ripple effect to prevent further death and suffering, thus allowing people who are struggling to seek the help they need.If you or someone you care about are in an immediate mental health crisis: Canada & USA: Suicide Crisis Helpline: 9-8-8If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide, call or text 9-8-8.
