Ep. 101 - A secret too heavy to carry | Marie Beckley

Understand Suicide

Marie lost her husband, Joe, in June 2020. They had been together for thirty years and were also business partners, so as you may imagine, after his death, she had to pick up the pieces of her life.

In this episode, she shares her journey, including the family secret he kept from her for years and its impact on his mental health. “He could not come to terms with what his memory was revealing to him in bits and pieces. In the last month of his life, especially, he was sure to tell me every day how beautiful I was, how much he loved me, how sorry he was that he hadn’t spent our whole marriage telling me these things daily,” she says
