Episode 14: Sean Keating: Suicide Awarness

In this episode of Across The Table, I sit down with Sean Keating to discuss a very most important and difficult conversation facing society today — suicide, mental health, and why suicide rates are significantly higher in men. We talk about the pressures many men face in silence, the stigma around opening up, emotional isolation, and why so many people struggle to ask for help. This is an honest and thoughtful conversation aimed at raising awareness and encouraging more open discussion around mental health. If this conversation resonates with you, or someone you know may be struggling, please remember that support is available and speaking to someone can make a difference.
