“The year I lost my father to suicide, it was an uncomfortable subject for most people to discuss. Perhaps today, it still is. Unfortunately, this loss is no longer isolated or age-specific. It now impacts the lives and hearts of so many.
I wish I had someone who understood what I was feeling when I lost my father. Someone who shared my emotions because, unfortunately, they had shared my experience. But I didn’t.
I want to be that for those who find themselves in this pain-ridden journey. I am sharing what I experienced and how I found healing and hope. It is my prayer that this book serves as a step toward your hope and healing as well.”
—Darlene Brock, on why she wrote her book When Suicide Touches Your Life

About Darlene Brock
Darlene Brock has always been one to push the limits of what’s possible. Determined to figure out life on her own terms, she left home at 18 and quit her first job as a receptionist at a prestigious law firm to live in a Christian commune. After a brief stint running a summer camp and conference center, Darlene spent more than 20 years in the music business with her husband, Dan, producing award-winning music videos, managing music groups, promoting concerts and serving as COO of ForeFront Records.
Over the course of her career, Darlene realized there were two tenets that helped her tackle the trials and triumphs life threw her way: grit and grace. This realization led her and Dan to launch The Grit and Grace Project, a nonprofit, faith-based media organization whose mission is to remind all women that true beauty is found in their strength.
It was through her work as co-founder and president of The Grit and Grace Project and her own motherhood journey that Darlene recognized the need for honest, unfiltered and encouraging advice for moms. Inspired to arm other mothers with the tools needed to raise confident and capable girls, Darlene wrote her first book, Raising Great Girls, which details the various roles and responsibilities a mom will take on as she sets her daughter on the path to success.
Darlene has been featured on “Fox & Friends,” “Focus on the Family,” “Keep the Faith,” “The Todd Starnes Show,” “Family Life Today” and multiple ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX affiliates. She has been a featured columnist for CNN and written for numerous family magazines and websites including HomeLife magazine and AUTHENTIC magazine. She’s also a commonly requested podcast guest, appearing in shows such as Jesus Calling, Stronger in the Difficult Places, Coffee and Kettlebells, 5 Minute Mom, Modern Motherhood, MARKED by LifeWay Women, and Rebel Parenting.
Darlene’s life as an author, mother, businesswoman, wife, and creative producer continues to underscore the truth behind The Grit and Grace Project’s motto: that life challenges should neither defeat nor define you. And, just so you know, she wears the tool belt in her family.
