Kevin Hines is a leader in suicide prevention. He is a leader because not only is he a survivor, but his perspective is unique and captivating, and you will definitely want to hear his story.

The year is 2000...you had a mission to end your life by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge, and you’re here today to tell about it.

The goal of today’s podcast is to help others to understand the grief and pain one is suffering as they attempt suicide and what we can do if we are suspecting that someone is in that place

and to take it even further...what we can do as a society to prevent it from happening.

The two most significant aspects of Kevin’s story are:

The bus

The tourist

Some questions we address:

1. Who is at risk for suicide?

2. Do people threaten suicide to get attention?

3. If I ask someone about suicide, does that put the idea in their head?

4. What if someone is posting suicidal messaging in social media?

5. What should I do if I am in crisis or someone I know is?

Coz Green is a host of Coz TV and the Coz Green Audio Experience podcast. Coz is an experienced narrator of Audible and iTunes audio books.. His motto is to “live an extraordinary life and be the best version of you”.

As we move out of 2020 and into 2021, boy do we need a reminder to do this.

Coz says we need to tap into your superconscious, diving, your God, etc. to look outside of yourself to accomplish great things for yourself and for humanity by coming together and thinking of “WE”.

Moving into a new year means people are wanting to go through some kind of transformation. Since weight loss is big on people’s lists, Coz talks about how his weight loss was coupled with mental health.

Coz discusses his three suicide attempts and “divine intervention” that prompted him to realize his purpose and appreciate of life, even though it was a long road of recovery. He says that when we get out of our own way and figure out the “why”, and with consideration of others, he knew he could reach his potential.

He says we are our worst enemies and critics so getting beyond our own fears, we can have a much better life.

Coz talks directly to those listeners who are at the bottom like he was, giving them hope for living their best life. Depression, suicide, and medication did not hold him back. Healing, a change in mindset, pursuing mental wellness and surrounding him with positive people helped him transform into the person he is today.

Dr. Patricia Boulogne finely known as Dr. Pat is a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, Coach, Chiropractor, Speaker, and Author who talks with us about how finding your weakest link in your health is your gateway to stepping into the new year with confidence.

Her motto is “KMF” - Keep Moving Forward!

Dr. Pat makes sense of complex and challenging situations, whether it's mind, body or soul, by finding a simpler and better way that gets you unstuck, more productive, faster and with measurable results.

Her best-selling book on Amazon, “Why...are you sick, fat, and tired?” Dr. Boulogne says that no matter what the answer is to this question, it’s time for a reality check and to “do yourself a favor…” and do something about it.

She says, “Many people are confused about their health; and do not know where to look for answers, nor who to ask or the right questions to ask. Wrong questions give rise to wrong answers, and waste your precious time and money! Not paying attention to even minor symptoms could lead to more serious illness and/or early death.”

We also touch upon:

-“cervical trauma”, which is more common than people realize

-The 3 T’s that make people really sick: Trauma, Toxins, Thoughts

Prateek Sureka is an Innovation Specialist who works in the intersection of policy, technology and innovation, consulting governments to develop Smart Cities of the future and leading teams in the Uk, India, Canada and United States. His vision for the future is to support climate change where we cut out carbon emissions and get rid of economic disparity.

We discussed some innovations that incorporate interesting robotics and tech. Singapore, for example, has robotic police, in the form of robotic dogs, created by Boston Dynamics that help to regulate how far apart people are social distancing.

A dystopian future is not out of the question with these types of advancements so using caution is more than necessary. Shows like Black Mirror demonstrates how this kind of tech may go awry, though we humans can explore ways to safely incorporate tech into Smart Cities.

There is a trade off to living in these kinds of cities since it can be costly.

We also discussed data privacy and what people are doing to advocate for policies around security.

Some questions we address:

What is a Sidewalk Lab?

What systems in a smart city will be affected?

What training should our youth get now to adapt to the future job market?

What has to happen in order to see smart cities as a reality? How long will this take?

When will 5g get here and how will it shape the future of tech?

What jobs should our youth prepare for?

Breanne Wylie is a PhD candidate and researcher in the field of developmental psychology, as well as a research associate and team lead for the Canadian Child Interviewing research team. Her work, focusing on how adults communicate with children, specifically when interviewing child witnesses within a legal context, has been published in a multitude of psychology journals. She has given lectures on promoting honest and accurate reports from children and has spoken at national and international conferences.

We discussed answers to the following questions:

Why is your research important?

Can anyone use these techniques (with good intentions)?

How do you test for efficacy?

Other topics discussed:

How children are questioned as witnesses in cases that involve family or criminal court

How to protect children who have to undergo this process and how to question them to provide the best information

How the research and these techniques are useful to parents, teachers and caregivers who suspect something suspicious may be going on and ways they can question them to uncover the truth so we can best support them.
