It's not a male problem or a female problem, it's a community problem. By having people actually step forward and share their stories, it actually helps us have an opportunity to say, hey, it's okay not to be okay, it's just not okay to do nothing about it.
Ever felt like sharing your story could make a difference? In this episode of 'Body & Soul', hosts Jason Dasey and Alex Hyndman Hill welcome Justin Geange to discuss the transformative power of staying connected through storytelling. They dive into 'Lightbulb Moments', a book brimming with tales of hope and resilience, including Justin and Jason's own experiences. As suicide rates continue to climb, the trio highlights how sharing personal stories can foster a sense of community and support.
Justin, who works closely with tradies on mental health issues, emphasizes that suicide is a community problem, not just a gender-specific one. He passionately argues that while it's okay to not be okay, it's crucial to take action and seek help. The conversation also touches on the importance of volunteering and finding purpose, which can provide a sense of belonging and connection to something larger than oneself.
Tune in to learn how genuine connections and shared stories can help you and your loved ones navigate through tough times.
