I'm a big believer in those planning for this especially, you know, if you know an anniversary is coming up when you lost a child or a loved one.
Imagine dedicating your life to saving others, only to realize you need saving too. That's the story of Kevin Briggs, a former California Highway Patrol officer renowned for his suicide intervention work on the Golden Gate Bridge. Dubbed the 'Guardian of the Golden Gate', Kevin has helped over 200 people step back from the brink. But even heroes have their own battles. In this episode, Dr.
Shauna Springer chats with Kevin about his personal struggles, including heart surgeries, cancer, and a painful divorce. Despite his expertise in helping others, Kevin found himself in need of help too. He shares how the Stellate Ganglion Block treatment became a pivotal part of his healing journey. Kevin also opens up about the unseen challenges faced by first responders and emphasizes the importance of sleep, connection, and truly listening to those in distress.
He offers heartfelt advice on helping children navigate the turmoil of divorce and planning for emotional triggers. This episode is a raw and inspiring look at the resilience it takes to heal while continuing to be a lifeline for others.
