Jackie and I tackle a subject no parent wants to face. Teen Suicide. Aug 3rd Jackie's daughter broke her silence and expressed the struggle she face with suicide in an event Jackie was hosting.


As she was expressing herself, Jackie was in shock as blood flowed from her eyes in disbelief of her daughters speech that continued with shocking stats that approx. 3000 youth commit suicide on a daily basis.


And 800,000 people commit suicide world wide, there's more suicides worldwide than any other death or illness in the world.


This topic can be prevented when you have a conversation with people to check in with their emotions.


Jackie and I role play a little scenario about how to start the conversation, not really talking about suicide but checking in with the individual and making sure everyone is okay.


The role play we did can be done with anyone that is able to speak and express their emotions.


Lets bring light to such a taboo subject and let's save our teens from every wanting to take their life because they can't handle their emotions.
