In this week’s episode we are joined by Kevin Briggs, TedX Speaker and most commonly known as the “Guardian of The Golden Gate Bridge”. Kevin was a California Highway Patrol officer noted for his work in suicide intervention, having dissuaded more than two hundred people from jumping off of the Golden Gate Bridge into San Francisco Bay. Kevin retired from the CHP in 2013, and now advocates on issues like Suicide Intervention/Prevention worldwide. Kevin talks to us about his approach to helping suicidal people on the bridge, his famous intervention with Kevin Berthia which went viral, how Kevin helped change law enforcement's approach to suicidal 911 calls, and what it feels like when someone jumps and you lose them to the water.

If you feel suicidal please reach out to the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255, or text NAMI at 741741 for help. You are not alone.
