Episode Summary

In the Season 4 Recap, Lisa & Natasha blast through the season’s standout moments — from compound grief to breaking mental health taboos, body-centered trauma, women and suicide, and powerful guest interviews with family members and long-time friends.

We also mark personal milestones: honest talks about suicidal ideation, a 100-pound weight-loss journey, and the launch of Lisa's memoir about surviving suicide loss, Surviving: Finding Hope After Suicide Loss (Familius Books). Resources, crisis guidance, and invitations to keep the conversation going are shared throughout. Thanks for being part of the Survivors community — keep surviving with us.
