Meet Brandy

Featured Keynote Speaker

Brandy Lidbeck is the author of The Gift of Second: Healing from the Impact of Suicide. As a young girl, Brandy was faced with the loss of her mother by suicide.

She shares her passion for other survivors to feel understood, connected, and encouraged that they are not alone through her writing and storytelling at thegiftofsecond.com.

The Gift of Second was designed so people further along in their healing can encourage those just beginning. It is the gift of going second, behind others who have been where you stand today.

Be sure to preorder Brandy’s book when you register!
