Defining Moments is a short-form series that pulls out the most powerful turning point from each long-form conversation.

In this Defining Moment, Barry “Baz” Du Bois shares the night he almost ended his life.

After years of private trauma including repeated miscarriages, IVF heartbreak, his mother’s passing, and his wife’s cancer diagnosis, Baz found himself wealthy and outwardly successful but emotionally broken. Sitting alone in his car on a rainy night, he believed everyone would be better off without him.

What changed everything was a simple phone call.

This is a raw conversation about depression, male identity, hidden suffering, and the life-saving power of human connection.

If this resonates, the full episode goes deeper into resilience, adversity, and why comfort can quietly erode our strength.

Watch or listen to the full conversation with Baz on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
