In this deeply moving episode, Emma and Kate from the DPJ Foundation sit down with Lynda and Gerallt, two parents who have each experienced the devastating loss of a son through suicide, in separate and heartbreaking circumstances.

Lynda and Gerallt share their personal journeys — from the moment their lives changed forever, through the shock and aftermath, to the long, ongoing reality of grief. They speak openly about heartbreak, unanswered questions, guilt, love, and what it truly means to keep going when the unimaginable has happened.

This is an honest and raw conversation about loss, the complexity of grief, and the strength it takes to speak out in the hope that others may feel less alone. I

t also highlights why open conversations, community support, and reaching out for help are so vital — for individuals, families, and especially within close-knit rural and agricultural communities.

Trigger Warning: Please note that this episode speaks about loss and death by suicide, so may be distressing or activating, particularly for individuals with lived experience of suicidal thoughts, self-harm, or bereavement by suicide.
