You don’t heal FROM grief. You heal WITH it.
Raw, real, and stigma-breaking talks that help people carry the unbearable — together.
Grief changes everything—and yet most workplaces pretend it doesn’t exist. I’m a stand-up comic who lost his son to suicide. Now, I blend comedy, tragedy, and psychedelic-fueled healing to break the silence around grief. It’s raw. It’s real. And surprisingly… funny.
ABOUT
After my son died by suicide, I stopped pretending everything was fine. I took to the stage instead. Today, I help people—and the places they work—face grief with courage, curiosity, and even comedy. Along the way, I found healing in unexpected places—including psychedelics and the neuroplasticity they spark.
