She also shares how 14 years ago, she found the courage to reach out when all seemed lost.

As we say goodbye to 2019, we want to pause and reflect on all of the moments that brought us here— the heavy and the light. We have a tradition here at TWLOHA called #WelcomeToMidnight. It began in 2011 as a blog by Jamie Tworkowsk and each year we return to those words and the conversation online. This year, we're bringing #WelcomeToMidnight to the podcast.

For the past few years, the amazing team at 107.5 The River has hosted a benefit concert in Nashville called Live. Life. Love. The event started with the goal to create meaningful conversations about mental health and suicide prevention in their community and also to help raise funds for To Write Love on Her Arms. The event returned this year in a big and surprising way. The line-up included incredible performers like Grammy-nominated artist Lizzo, Jon Bellion, Louis Tomlinson, lovelytheband, and Chelsea Cutler. They were also joined by some of Nashville's up-and-coming artists like Leah Sykes, Bailey Bryan, and Scott Gardner.

The evening was truly incredible with over 7,500 people attending a sold out show in Nashville. We spent the evening backstage talking with artists and people who helped create this special event. On this episode you're going to hear some of our conversations with Robin Fomusa from iHeart station 107.5 The River, Job Bellion, Mitchy and Jordan from lovelytheband, Chelsea Cutler, and Scott Gardner. We hope these conversations are going to bring you hope and remind you that no matter what you're facing, you're never alone.
