Show Notes

This week we received the tragic news of the passing of DJ Stephen 'tWitch' Boss. DJ 'tWitch' died by suicide, and since the news broke, social media has been in a frenzy, urging people to check in on their "strong" friends. But what does that mean? How are we checking in? In this episode, RP talks about the importance of developing a mechanism/ system to check in with all of our loved ones (not just the strong and happy ones) and being intentional and empathetic in our connections.  

Reducing the risk of suicide is a collective community effort. We have to start viewing these issues as communal and not just individual ones. 

If you or someone you know needs help, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lieline.
