TW: Suicide
Last week I had the opportunity to have an intimate conversation on my experience with Suicide with Astrid and Alex of Call My Sister Podcast. This episode may be triggering to some so I encourage you to take the time for yourself during and after listening.
As the 10th leading cause of death in the United States and the second leading cause of death (after accidents) for people aged 10 to 34, suicide is a serious public health problem.

In 2016 in the United States, nearly 45,000 people died by suicide and the rate of suicide has increased every year since 2006. An estimated 1.3 million adults attempt suicide each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). More than one in five people who died by suicide had expressed their suicide intent. https://www.psychiatry.org/patients-families/suicide-prevention

“Lessons Taught by Daddy” is the first collection of poems that Ambers has published. However, she has been featured in other collections such as the She Will Speak Series: Gender Based Violence Anthology which included two of her poems “Rotting” and “Revival”. Angelique Ambers is passionate about bringing awareness to social issues and connecting people of various backgrounds. She performed at the Purple Meets Pink: Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer Awareness event in Memphis, TN last October.

Hello Everyone,
On this weeks Episode we interviewed Nishea Balajadia who has fostered 13 children while having her own bio-daughter. Nieshea mission as a foster parent not only includes safety of the child but also acknowledging and helping to address the trauma that many times goes unnoticed in bio-parents.
We touched on the system and how it helps in creating these generational cycles and also Nishea opened up on her own trauma and how she turned it into her purpose. This episode is packed with many viewpoints that are not always talked about! But, that is why you are here at "As I Was Saying..." Podcast.
