In this powerful episode of Selective Hearing, Julie Dammar sits down with Dallis Collis, a survivor of unimaginable loss who turned his life around after what he calls his "year of destruction." Dallis shares his story of facing cancer, losing his wife, family, home, and business, and battling alcoholism—all within a single year. At his lowest point, Dallis contemplated suicide but instead chose to rebuild his life from the ground up.
Dallis explores the dangers of blame as an emotional addiction, the importance of living in the present, and how confronting our personal "mess" can lead to profound transformation. His story concerns resilience, self-awareness, and the courage to start over. Whether facing your struggles or seeking inspiration to push past life's obstacles, this episode will empower you.
If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts, please know that help is available. Contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988 for free, confidential support 24/7. You don't have to face this alone.
