If you've been looking for relatable, non-invasive support after losing someone to overdose (drug poisoning), you've found it. Holding heartbreak in one hand and inspiration to take action in the other, Kale Moth and Julie Cochrane explore life after losing their loved one to overdose.
Kale talks about the increasing crisis in Saskatchewan where he works, having lost 23 co-workers in the last 6 years. Julie talks about her professional practice, as a hypnotherapist, inspired to bring timely and effective services to young men who are suffering from their own pain, loss, and mental health issues.
Julie quickly transitions into her grief journey where she just needed to take action, to learn and prevent other families from going through the suffering her family has. From the surreal moments the police showed up at their door, to seeing the overdose crisis being politically weaponized, this episode meaningfully moves through the personal tragedy, the what-if's, stigma, and how we move forward, together.
