About this listen

On April 24, 1983, I woke up to five words that would change my life forever: "Suzanne. There's been an accident."

In this raw, intimate episode, I revisit the day I learned my brother was killed in a car accident—and the complicated grief that followed.

But this story isn’t just about death. It’s about rejection. It’s about abandonment. It’s about trying to grieve for someone you love while standing in a house surrounded by people who hate you.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt unwanted, unloved, or unsure of where they fit in the world. It’s for the ones carrying silent grief and invisible wounds.

💔 Trigger warning: This episode contains themes of loss, adoption trauma, and emotional abandonment.


If you don’t know me, I’m a Clinical Hypnotherapist, Coach, and NLP practitioner.

This work — hypnosis, NLP, and deep emotional coaching — helped me heal what I’ve shared here.

If you feel like I might be the right person to help you do the same, I’d be honored.
