TRIGGER WARNING: There is a lot of open talk about suicide attempts and means used in this episode.

Healer, coach, and suicide attempt survivor, Jeffrey Saunders, stops by to discuss growth, healing, and service following trauma and depression. It is never too late to heal that scared little boy inside.
“I always felt like a little guy in a big body.” ~ Jeffrey Saunders
Today we explore the inner child of a seemingly broken man. Jeffrey shares his harrowing tale of addiction, an emotionally absent father, multiple suicide attempts, and a near-death experience that gifted him healing abilities. We discuss lightworkers, the darkness of never feeling wanted, the power of forgiveness and much more.
We all can only do what our tools and knowledge at any given time allow us to do. One of the greatest things about life is that there are always more tools and knowledge to discover and put to use.
