Harlie and Robin Monroe, sister and mother of Tay’s high school friend Jared, join the Lautners today to discuss the heartbreaking events that led to Jared taking his life and their foundation, The Jared Monroe Foundation, which supports students with bipolar disorder. They go back to the very beginning, when the family adopted Jared, discuss his marijuana use, which acted as a major trigger for his diagnosis, and share details on the various manic episodes he endured. They talk about their unique grief journeys, the importance of having a community around you, and offer words of encouragement to Tay, saying just how proud her friend Jared would be of what she’s doing today.  Be sure to visit jaredmonroefoundation.org  Thanks to our awesome sponsors for supporting this episode:  Beam — If you want to try Beam’s best-selling Dream Powder, take advantage of their biggest sale of the year and get up to 50% off for a limited time when you go to shopbeam.com/THESQUEEZE   Marine Layer — Find your new favorite fits and get 15% off @marinelayer with our exclusive link marinelayer.com/THESQUEEZE. #marinelayerpod  Jenni Kayne — Find your forever pieces @jennikayne and get 25% off at jennikayne.com/thesqueeze! #jennikaynepartner  To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected].
