Conquer The Darkness And Embrace Life

In this deeply emotional and inspiring episode, Stephen interviews Brandy Vega, founder and CEO of Promise 2 Live. Together, they dive into the critical issue of mental health—unfiltered, unscripted, and honest. Brandy recounts her own suicide attempt at age 12 and how surviving that moment led to a life filled with purpose: from military service and motherhood to interviewing presidents and adopting children. But it was her daughter’s suicide attempt at 12—while Brandy was producing an NFL broadcast—that shattered her world and ultimately sparked the creation of Promise to Live.

 

Highlights of this episode:

• The damaging stigma around mental health and suicide.

• The power of a promise.

• A.S.K. – How you can really check in with your loved ones

 

This is more than a conversation. It's a movement built on courage, compassion, and a promise to live. As Brandy and Stephen reflect together, the message becomes clear: your voice, your story, your truth—can save a life.
