EPI #36 - The Riveting Story of Arlana Miller's Suicide | Educator & Mother, Janice Tappin-Miller

Today, we have a deeply personal and important conversation with Janice Tappin-Miller, a mother who carries both warmth and unimaginable grief. Janice joins us to share the story of her beloved daughter, Arlana Miller—a bright, compassionate, and driven young woman who tragically passed away at just 19 years old. Arlana was a dedicated student at Southern University in Baton Rouge, a talented cheerleader, and a young woman who uplifted those around her. She dreamed of becoming a psychiatrist, wanting to help others navigate their life struggles. But behind her encouraging spirit, Arlana faced her own demons as she battled to maintain mental health—struggles that she openly shared in a heartbreaking farewell message before her passing in spring of 2022. Today, Janice invites us into her world—the love she holds for her daughter, the pain of losing her, and the message she hopes to share in Arlana’s honor. This is a conversation about grief, but also about the importance of mental health awareness and the ways we can support one another. Janice, thank you for being here with us and for having the continuous courage to share Arlana's life with the world!  Watch the video version here [https://youtu.be/R6ypQDbey9c] 👈🏽  The Everything Matters Podcast is hosted by High-Performance & Leadership Coach, Bradford Speaks aka "Coach B".
