She also takes us inside The Taylor Foundation’s festival activations, including its interactive PTSD Storyboard and Memorial Legacy Ribbon Tree.These experiences give people a safe place to share their trauma, honor those they have lost, and discover something many desperately need to see: they are not alone.We discuss nonprofit leadership, suicide prevention, the limitations of crisis-only messaging, and why healing often begins when people recognize themselves in someone else’s story.Learn more about The Taylor Foundation: https://www.wearettf.org/This episode includes candid discussion of PTSD, trauma, suicide, and mental-health crises.
