S4 | EP.28 The Secret Sunday Session with Matt LaFontaine.
After almost losing his life to suicide during Covid, Matt has become a powerful mental health advocate and in this week’s episode for #movember, we hear the phenomenal journey that led Matt to “pull up” 3,249 times for the lives lost to suicide in Australia.
Matt shares how community, purpose and choices influence the path to discovering your true authentic self.
We start the conversation about the mindset someone can be in to consider “taking their life”, the importance of finding a community that supports your values, how to ask for help, and why we need to change unhelpful patterns.
This episode shares a real and raw encounter of what it is like for someone contemplating their life. Please listen with care and know there are support services out there.
