Send us Fan Mail Season 1, Episode 17 ****disclaimer content as this episode I discuss suicide and self harm**** Welcome to episode 17. It’s a tear jerker. Please look after yourself and call Lifeline on 131114 if you need assistance. Please also know that whilst I am not ok, and I am struggling, I am not suicidal. I start the episode with a song of the week which discusses our very human question of wanting to know why people go down the suicide paths. I then go on to speak about a colleague who has recently died by suicide and how that is currently impacting me. I play another song of the week to remind myself and listeners that there is still rainbows amidst the storms of life. Life, family and friends are worth fighting for. These are my rainbows. Song of the week: Why - Rascal Flatts https://youtu.be/5EXGJKxi_PU?si=PMQ2XY8qKj_005i7 Rainbow - Kasey Musgraves https://youtu.be/6OFv566mj7s?si=Mn8M2wy0A0eWlxTx Though of the week: “Even in the darkest moments, light exists if you have faith to see it”
