Without a previous friendship, Kama Spartz (@kamaspartz) and Taylore dive deep into a meaningful, heartfelt conversation about mental health and making the conscious choice to evolve into a better person, even when it's hard to own your shit. It's the most difficult to say to yourself: "I am the problem."
Kama and Taylore have both lost someone they love to suicide. In the most courageous way possible, Kama tells the story of her close, childhood friend, Maddie, the guilt that comes after a suicide, and how her death changed her outlook on interacting with the world. She tells such an eye-opening story, teaching everyone to reach out to the ones you love, become an advocate and be the person who chooses to smile back.
How will you treat the next Maddie, the next Edwin YOU meet?
