Today I'm speaking with April Wilkner, actor, broadcaster, and mental health advocate.
April is a suicide hotline crisis counselor for #988 and shares her experience working for the hotline as well as her personal connection to suicide and mental health.
In this powerful interview, April openly shares her story with poise and provides very helpful tips on how we can show up for our loved ones going through grief.
Some of the highlights of today's chat include:
