Mental health and suicide conversations are some of the most difficult ones to have. I’ve been very careful in thinking about how to have an episode on them & who to have on as a guest. Sam Webb has been an advocate for both Mental Health and Suicide Prevention ever since he lost his best friend to suicide in 2018. He co-founded a foundation called “LIVIN” and has been very outspoken on several platforms to help bring awareness to these tough conversations. They are necessary, essential & can possibly save lives. As you’ll hear in our episode, it’s no longer acceptable to take an “I’m fine” response from a friend or family member, when asking how they’re doing. We need to dive deeper and provide help in any kind of way. This episode is very touching, powerful & hopefully helpful to those who need to hear it. Thank you for taking the time to listen and PLEASE share this with anyone who may be in need.
