And I think the good thing is to and to realize that and accept these are your chances and then learn from people like Michelle and me.
Imagine facing the world alone after your partner's sudden death, all while hiding a painful secret. That's the reality Michelle Anhang faced at just 34 years old when her husband died by suicide. Left to raise two young sons, Michelle and her family decided to tell everyone he died in an accident, hoping to avoid the stigma and shame associated with mental illness.
But carrying this heavy secret for over a decade took a toll on her own mental and physical health.

Tune in to hear Michelle discuss the importance of vulnerability, self-love, and the power of sharing your truth. Her story is a powerful reminder that opening up can lead to healing and personal freedom. Whether you're dealing with similar struggles or supporting someone who is, Michelle's insights offer hope and practical advice for breaking free from the prisons of secrets, shame, and stigma.
