When the pain feels unbearable and we feel alone in our suffering this podcast will sit with you. Let's rediscover our purpose, reduce our pain and regain our sense of belonging. Join comedian Leo Flowers M.A. as he shares his own journey through suicidality, interviews guests with lived experiences and discusses with experts on how to escape the flames and create a life worth living.
On today's episode we discuss Olympic cyclist Kelly Catlin; CTE (head trauma) and managing the symptoms; the importance of letting go; why people cheat; and daily routines to manage your emotions.
