The warmth, compassion, and intelligence of Paula Fontanelle make this podcast my go to one when I want to find comfort and help as I grieve the loss of our son who died by suicide. Her training as a therapist makes her able to offer helpful ways to find relief from this pain, and her journalistic background allows her to ask pertinent questions to her guests. Finally, her own personal experience with the loss of her father by suicide means she really gets it.
