Bonus Episode: Opening Up About Suicide and Mental Illness with Kevin Hines The Social Ninjas

In this bonus episode, we interview suicide survivor, social activist, and mental health champion, Kevin Hines. We have a vulnerable conversation about suicide, depression, and bipolar disorder as Kevin shares his own story surviving suicide. With an estimate of nearly 2,000 successful suicide attempts to date, Kevin is 1 out of only 34 people who have survived jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. He provides us with a number of tools (including his free 10-step program) that we can use to maintain optimal mental health, as well as ways we can support loved ones who suffer from mental illness. Kevin has truly dedicated his life to normalising this conversation and helping transform lives. He is also an award-winning filmmaker and best-selling author. You can visit Kevin’s Instagram to find all of the resources we talked about in today’s episode.

Enjoy!
