IN this episode, my guest explained why he lived up to his last name. Ever since the age of 8 years, he has either struggled with suicide or encountered near-death experiences, literally. That brought him a bunch of PTSD, which then led him to found Beacon4Hope. He opened up about his experiences while helping other people find hope and intervening with people planning to commit suicide.
