Seeing Suicide from a Variety of Perspectives: Gordon Carmichael
Being in a line of work that often exposes you to the reality of death by suicide can be both a challenge and a gift. Realizing that no amount of training will adequately prepare you for the experience can be quite unsettling. It does, however, allow you to develop more empathy for the deceased and their loved ones, and serve as a light for more people on their dark journey.
In this episode of the Share Your Story podcast, I am joined by Gordon Carmichael, a Warrior of the Heart and Transformational Coach who has been touched by suicide as a police officer, manager in the healthcare setting, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) therapist, as well as friend. Join us in this compassionate and vulnerable conversation on an often very sensitive and traumatic topic.

About Gordon
Formerly a Senior Officer in Strathclyde Police in Glasgow, Gordon still lives in his native city, which he describes as remaining at the heart of Europe, despite the recent political upheaval. On retirement and having untaken a Diploma in Person Centred Therapy, he secured a position within Primary Care as a Manager whilst he continued to volunteer with a Counselling Charity, which this year celebrates 25 years and which in 2018 was awarded the Queen's Medal for Voluntary Service. An active leader in his community, Gordon has valued the concept of Participatory Leadership through his engagement with The Art of Hosting, a global field of practitioners.
With the Cop26 due to be held in Glasgow in November, Gordon is committed to ensuring his positivity might encourage others to envisage what is possible for the people on this planet as we emerge from the pandemic.
