About this listen

Would love to hear your thoughts...

In this episode, we return to Ari a month after her attempt — not at an ending, but at a continuation. This is FLOW, the phase of living in motion.

FLOW does not promise smoothness. It promises awareness. It helps us notice how life breathes after survival — imperfect, uneven, yet alive.

We explore the four strands of FLOW:

  • F – Fluctuations in mood and risk: recognising that ups and downs are not failures, but early signals to listen to.
  • L – Learning from setbacks and successes: turning survival into lived wisdom, and spotting the small strategies that already help.
  • O – Openness to support and change: recognising when to reach out, and building a circle of safety that feels possible.
  • W – What If / If Then planning: rehearsing safety through concrete steps, so the next wave does not overwhelm.

Through Ari’s story, we see how these strands begin to take shape: some days heavy, some lighter, but now with more awareness and preparation. FLOW reminds us that life after survival is not a return to “before,” but a rehearsal of life as it is — tender, resilient, and ongoing.
