“The souls that have seen the darkest days can shine the brightest lights”
On March 17th, 2017, I wrote my suicide note. In the depths of despair, I was ready to surrender to the shadows. Yet, a timely call from a friend, became the catalyst for a profound transformation. This is not just a story of survival but a celebration of resilience, empathy, and the daily commitment to make a positive impact in someone’s life every day. This presentation will change how you view suicide, mental health and most importantly how you address trauma. I will address and talk about the years of research leading to the 4X #1 bestseller “The Journey to Midnight” and what I’ve come to learn about how to survive and thrive in a career as a first responder/veteran or any other profession. Trauma doesn’t discriminate. It can leave us lost, broken, and alone. What if we shifted our perspective and saw trauma through a Post Traumatic Growthmindset? What if we could turn pain into progress, obstacles into opportunity, mess into a message? What could we accomplish? Walk with me during this presentation because we all have our own personal midnight and my hope is that even in the midst of our most difficult experiences, we find the hidden treasure waiting to be discovered.
