The Rise Back: Tiffaney Childers on Suicide, Silence, and Healing

Some stories are hard to hear — but they are the ones that matter most.In this powerful episode of The P-I-G Podcast, we sit down with Tiffaney Childers, a suicide loss survivor, advocate, and founder of her local chapter of The LOSS Team, to explore what happens when grief is buried in silence — and what becomes possible when truth is finally spoken.Tiffaney shares her experience of losing both of her parents to suicide, followed by the sudden death of her father-in-law and the loss of her brother to pancreatic cancer — all while raising two young children and carrying the weight of trauma quietly for nearly two decades. What followed was not only emotional pain, but physical suffering: chronic pain that became her body’s way of holding what her voice could not yet release.Together, we talk about the long-term effects of suppressed grief, the stigma surrounding suicide loss, parenting through trauma, and the moment Tiffaney realized healing could no longer wait. She also shares how her journey led her to create meaningful support for others navigating loss — and why speaking openly about suicide saves lives.🎙️ In this episode, we discuss:Surviving suicide loss and carrying it in silenceHow unprocessed grief can manifest physicallyParenting through trauma while honoring truthChronic pain, emotional suppression, and healingThe Rise Up Method and living forward with intentionWhy breaking the silence around suicide loss mattersThis may not be an easy listen — but it is a necessary one.
