Summary

When Heather Wyatt lost her bubbly 13-year-old daughter Aubreigh to suicide after relentless bullying, her world shattered. But instead of letting grief consume her, Heather turned her pain into purpose. In this deeply emotional and inspiring episode, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen sit down with Heather to talk about the warning signs parents often miss, how antidepressants can affect young brains, and practical ways to protect kids from social media bullying. Heather shares her journey through trauma, faith, and advocacy—and how the "Live Like Aubreigh Wyatt" (#LLAW) movement is helping families across the country heal and find hope again. This episode is heartbreaking, raw, and ultimately redemptive—a must-listen for every parent, teacher, and teen.
