What followed was a decade of silence, self-medicating, and trying to “get on with life” while carrying unspoken grief and shame.Together, Tim and Will explore the unique pain of suicide bereavement, why so many men still struggle to ask for help, and how opening up through storytelling, community, and creativity, can be the first step toward healing.They also discuss Will’s short film Heirlooms, viewed over 3.5 million times, which shines a light on the intergenerational trauma of suicide and the importance of supporting those left behind.This is a brave, honest, and deeply human conversation about vulnerability, fatherhood, and what it really means to break the cycle.🔑 Key Topics:- Growing up between wealth, work ethic, and emotional distance- His father’s death by suicide, and the day Will found out- Why he gave the eulogy, then went back to work the next day- The decade of silence that followed, and what finally changed- Movember, advocacy, and how speaking out became his therapy- How Heirlooms came to life—and why it’s resonated so widely- The ripple effects of suicide: shame, anger, and inherited pain- What needs to change in male friendships, fatherhood, and culture- Healthy masculinity and building new stories for our sons#MaleSuicidePrevention#HealthyMasculinity#SuicideBereavement#HeirloomsFilm#MenAndMentalHealth#PodcastFirst and most importantly, here's the link to the short film we discuss: https://www.willcastle.com/heirlooms Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share this episode to help us grow this...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/r-InY2RDPJtsFsUEsy0G5tI8gOJc__LD69KmkReEj6k/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mZDBh/OTNkNjU5YWQ1NDIy/OTU3NWE3NTFkMTJi/Y2YxNi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
