When Theresa Bruno lost her husband James to suicide, she was plunged into a wilderness of sorrow, guilt, and silence. In this moving conversation, Theresa shares how she found the courage to survive—and eventually, to rebuild. From writing letters to her late husband to discovering the transformative power of what she calls “defiant gratitude,” Theresa opens up about healing after unimaginable loss.

This is a raw, honest, and ultimately hopeful episode for anyone asking:
“How do I live again when I’m still in pain?”

💡 What You’ll Learn In This Episode:

  • Why suicide grief brings unique emotional complexity
  • How shame and silence keep us stuck
  • The spiritual awakening that can follow trauma
  • Why healing isn’t linear—and that’s okay
  • How nature and small rituals can become lifelines
  • How Theresa’s affirmations helped her rediscover herself
  • The meaning behind the title He’s Not Coming Back
