Losing a Sibling to Suicide: A Journey of Grief, Trauma, and Healing: Guest Dana K

In this deeply moving episode of Adult Child of Dysfunction: Thriving After Chaos, I sit down with writer and poet Dana K, whose journey through grief and healing is both heartbreaking and inspiring. After losing her brother, Arman, to suicide, Dana was forced to confront not only his absence but also the trauma she had carried since childhood. Growing up in a home with narcissistic parents, she endured emotional neglect and manipulation, leaving deep scars that remained unaddressed—until Arman’s passing became the catalyst for her healing.

Dana shares how grief unraveled years of unresolved pain and how she found solace in therapy, self-reflection, and writing. Her debut book, FIVE A.M. The Silence After Goodbye, is a raw and beautiful tribute to her brother, transforming loss into poetry and pain into art. In this episode, we explore the tangled web of trauma, self-discovery, and the power of creative expression in the healing process.

If you’ve ever struggled with loss, childhood wounds, or finding a way to process deep emotions, this conversation will resonate with you. Join us as we discuss the journey of grief, the complexities of healing, and how honoring our past can help us reclaim our future.
