I sit down with Katy, a world traveler and former couch surfer, about her experiences with mental health, and the impact suicide has had on her life. It's possible that she will have had to plan funeral arrangements for her mother, brother, and her father, all before turning 30.

We touch on ADD, ADHD, medication, suicide, addiction, alcoholism, grief, counseling, stigma and more in our raw conversation about life and how even in our darkest days, there are always rays of brightness to be found in the shadows.
