Beyond the physical scars, they bear invisible wounds: PTSD, moral injury, anxiety, and the emotional toll of years of service. But what if these scars weren't just reminders of pain, but symbols of resilience and growth?In this episode, we take a deep dive into the emotional and psychological impact of trauma in first responders and explore how to shift from survival mode to thriving after trauma. We break down:

Mental health advocates are welcoming a funding boost for crisis care but are concerned there's no national plan and decisions are being made based on decades old data. The government has detailed a $61.5 million dollar funding boot for mental health crisis services. It includes 40 additional frontline clinical staff for crisis asessments and treatment teams nationwide. Minister for Mental Health Matt Doocey spoke to Lisa Owen.

When a loved one passes away by suicide, it is often hard to grieve. Knowing what to say and how to process one's emotions can be challenging. Many times, people turn to social media to express their feelings.A County Galway priest has urged people to be mindful of what they post online following deaths by suicide. Fr Mark Quinn appealed to the public to avoid comments such as “he's in a better place” or “she's at peace with the angels,” saying that while well-intentioned, such phrases can send harmful messages.He warned that these expressions may imply that death brings peace, which could be dangerous for those struggling with their mental health…Fr Quinn said greater care and sensitivity are needed when offering condolences, reminding people that thoughtful language can help protect those who are vulnerable while still showing compassion to the bereaved.How can we grieve the loss of a loved one? Are we better off to stay away from social media in this instance?Joining guest host Anna Daly to discuss is Fr Paddy Byrne, Parish Priest of Abbeyleix, Raheen & Ballinakil, Counselling Psychologist and Lecturer in TU Dublin, Leslie Shoemaker, Mental Health Advocate and Antibullying Campaigner, Chris Sherlock and Member and Ambassador of Limerick Treaty Suicide Prevention & Professional Boxer, Lee Reeves.
