    TEDx Speaker FRANK KING Talks Suicide Prevention & Mental Health Struggles

    In this powerful episode of On Point With ATIBA TESLIM, we host Frank King, a globally recognized speaker and comedian known for his impactful TEDx talks on suicide prevention and mental health awareness.      Frank begins his keynote with Signs and Symptoms of Stress, Anxiety, Depression and Thoughts of Suicide, and finishes with Solutions, and Postvention (what to do after a Suicide) techniques. He can do a general session for the entire student body, followed by breakout sessions customized for the higher-risk student groups on campus, including students who identify as LGBTQ, Native American, Latino, Alaskan Native, African American, and student veterans. Frank can leave a lasting legacy by certifying Resident Advisors, Faculty, and Staff with a Train the Trainer Program. Despite the mental health struggles faced by college students, the good news is: You can do something about that, you can make a difference, you can save a life. In 2016 Frank King began coaching potential T Talkers, when a number of his speaker coaching clients approached him and asked if he would coach them on scoring a T Talk opportunity. Since then, dozens of his clients have done their first T Talk, several have done two, and one has done three! Frank King was a writer for the Tonight Show for 20 years, and he holds the record for the longest non stop comedy club road trip ever. Beginning the day after Christmas in 1985, he and his wife (who must have the patience of Job) were on the road 2,629 nights in a row, comedy club to comedy club with no home, just a PO Box and voice mail. He shared the stage with Jerry Seinfeld, Jeff Foxworthy, Ron White, Adam Sandler, Dennis Miller, Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O'Donnell, Dr. Ken Joeng, Rita Sirleaf and Kevin James among others. Since becoming a public speaker on Suicide Prevention in 2014, he's done multiple Ted Talks.
