Dr. Sally Spencer Thomas on Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Advocacy

Reaching out for support that really connects and resonates with you is the thing that can really help people feel connected and like they belong, and also to start to develop some of those skills and solve the problems that are driving despair.
Ever wondered how personal tragedy can fuel a lifelong mission to help others? Dr. Sally Spencer Thomas, a clinical psychologist and TEDx speaker, knows this journey all too well. After losing her brother to suicide in 2004, she dedicated her life to suicide prevention and mental health advocacy. In this episode of The Funky Brain Business Podcast, host Dennis Berry chats with Dr. Sally about her inspiring work and personal experiences.
They delve into her impactful initiatives, like the creation of mantherapy.org, a platform that uses humor and digital media to engage men in their mental health. The conversation touches on the importance of reaching out for support, setting achievable goals, and practicing self-care. Whether you're dealing with addiction or just feeling stuck, Dr. Sally's insights offer a beacon of hope and practical advice for anyone looking to improve their mental well-being.
