Life is what's given, but every single day, you have a chance to make the best of it because you have opportunity. So life is what's given, opportunity is taken. And you have an opportunity to take whatever and be whatever and choose whatever you want every single day. Don't give that up.
Imagine facing the darkest moments of your life and then using that experience to help others. That's exactly what Brandy Vega, a dynamic entrepreneur and media expert, has done. In this compelling episode of 'Knockin' Doorz Down', host Jason LaChance sits down with Brandy to explore her incredible journey from a suicide survivor to a leading advocate for mental health and suicide prevention.
Brandy's story is not just about her own struggles; it's also about her daughter's battle with mental health issues, making it a poignant tale of resilience and hope. From joining the Army at 17 as a broadcaster to producing shows for Fox News and interviewing Presidents, Brandy's career has been nothing short of remarkable. But it's her current mission with the Promise2Live campaign that truly stands out.
This initiative encourages people to make a promise to seek help if they ever feel hopeless or suicidal and to share this promise on social media to create a viral movement. Every 40 seconds, someone dies by suicide, but in that same time, you can take the Promise2Live and potentially save a life. Brandy's openness and determination to break the stigma surrounding mental health and suicide are both inspiring and urgent.
Whether you're struggling yourself, know someone who is, or simply want to be part of a life-saving movement, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable steps. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that aims to make a real difference.
