Abigail (21) and Toby (20) are both part of the LGBTQ+ community, and they were both bereaved by suicide when they were teenagers. In this episode, they explore their different grief journeys but also find plenty of common ground. The conversation covers coming out, navigating suicide bereavement as a teen, and coming to terms with their person never knowing about their sexuality and gender identity.
