"My core value growing up was I'm not enough. So, every decision I made, even up until two years ago, everything I did must improve my self-worth." In this episode, we discussed Chris Miles's story of enduring child abuse, struggling with depression, and finding hope through family support and a passion for game development, in particular:

This week the New Zealand Suicide Statistics for the last year were released and it has shown an unfortunate increase in the suicide rate. Whilst positive strides are continually made, it serves as a reminder that work is still to be done. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cuentan que un zapatero remendón vino a Madrid a hacer fortuna, pero le fue tan mal que tuvo que regresar a su pueblo de origen. No obstante, al salir de la ciudad se dio vuelta para mirarla, y dijo con melancolía: «¡Adiós, Madrid, que te quedas sin gente!» En la obra titulada Dichos y frases hechas, sus autores Belén Bermejo y José Calles explican que esta expresión popular se emplea «sobre todo cuando en la capital de España se despide a alguien cuya presencia no se estima o su persona carece de importancia». Por eso añaden que, como suele suceder con tantas otras expresiones, siempre se dice con marcada ironía.1 Lamentablemente, en la actualidad hay cada vez más personas alrededor del mundo que, en lugar de decir: «¡Adiós, Madrid!», o: «¡Adiós, Ciudad de México!», o: «¡Adiós, Buenos Aires!», o: «¡Adiós, Caracas!», o: «¡Adiós, Lima!», o: «¡Adiós, Bogotá!», dicen más bien: «¡Adiós, mundo cruel, que te quedas sin gente!» Y lo dicen no sólo con un dejo fatal sino con el mismo dejo de ironía. Pues aunque tal vez no lo escriban así en una nota de suicidio, están convencidas de que, a los ojos del mundo, carecen de importancia alguna y por eso su ausencia ni siquiera será sentida. ¡Qué trágico! Al parecer, esas personas no están conscientes de que su muerte causará un doble perjuicio: que no sólo herirán en lo más profundo a los seres queridos que por una u otra razón no las han convencido de lo contrario, sino que también herirán la sensibilidad de su Creador. Pues no comprenden que, a los ojos de Dios, sí tienen importancia, ¡y no poca sino mucha! Son tan importantes que Él envió a su único Hijo Jesucristo al mundo para dar su vida por ellas. ¡Así de grande es el amor que Dios les tiene!2 De modo que cuando una persona se suicida, está en efecto diciendo que Cristo entregó su vida en vano por ella. Y para colmo de males, esa persona se pierde la vida con propósito que Él vino a darle. Pues Cristo vino al mundo no sólo para morir por nosotros, sino también para darnos una razón para vivir.3 Para los que en esos casos fatales quedamos preguntándonos cómo pudo tal cosa haber sucedido y por qué, es de esperarse que nos alarmemos por la estadística de una muerte por suicidio cada 40 segundos, así como por el pronóstico de que está por duplicarse esa cifra a una muerte por suicidio cada 20 segundos.4 Pero no nos demos por vencidos. Más bien armémonos espiritualmente con toda la armadura de Dios5 a fin de ayudar a los que hayan contemplado ponerle fin a su existencia en el pasado, o que tal vez ahora mismo estén contemplando el suicidio, y así hacerle frente juntos al ladrón de nuestra alma. Pues Jesucristo mismo nos advirtió que ese ladrón «no viene más que a robar, matar y destruir», mientras que Él vino para que tengamos vida, y la tengamos en abundancia.6 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 José Calles Vales y Belén Bermejo Meléndez, Dichos y frases hechas (Madrid: Editorial LIBSA, 2000), p. 96; Gregorio Doval, Del hecho al dicho (Madrid: Ediciones del Prado, 1995), p. 5. 2 Jn 3:16 3 Mt 20:28; Jn 10:10; Ro 5:8; 1Jn 4:10 4 «Datos y cifras sobre el suicidio: infografía», Organización Mundial de la Salud, Salud Mental  y «Suicide Statistics» (Estadísticas de suicidio), Befrienders Worldwide: volunteer action to prevent suicide (Enlazadores de Amistad en todo el Mundo: acción voluntaria para prevenir el suicidio) En línea 13 febrero 2018. 5 Ef 6:10-18 6 Jn 10:9-10

My spouse told me that if there was a “reverse pill” to avoid being transgender, she would take it. It is a heartbreaking time in the U.S. to see an increase of anti-transgender laws being introduced while living with a loved one who is trying to navigate their transition and live in peace. This episode explores how our treatment of transgender people can mean life or death.

Suicide deaths account for nearly 46,00 deaths in the United States, about one death every five minutes.  The number per year has continued to grow for the past several years.  Investigators face many challenges in this death, including when to rule a death a suicide and what degree of certainty must be obtained before making that ruling.  More information and statistics can be found on the website at:  coronertalk.com To learn more about the Death Investigation Academy, go to ditacademy.org

Ignite Your Purpose (ft. John O'Leary)How John O'Leary went from out of the fire into the hearts of millionsOPENING QUOTE:“Jack taught me four things, real quick: say yes, show up, come back, bring friends. And that's what I want to do. We want to change the world one life at a time, starting with yours.”—John O'LearyGUEST BIO:John O'Leary is a two-time national bestselling author and world-renowned thought leader who, in 1987, was burned by a massive explosion in his home that left burns on 100% of his body. He was given less than a 1% chance to live. Today, John hosts the Live Inspired Podcast, which has more than 2.5 million downloads, and speaks to over 50,000 people every single year.Links:WebsiteFacebookLinkedInInstagramTwitterYoutubeCORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[2:10] - Being Awake vs. Feeling AliveThe moment John came to life was long after the fireFor two decades after the fire, John felt lost and directionless. Then he began to consider his talents, and how they could be used to create a life of purpose regardless of what had come before. Today, John speaks powerfully on the difference between simply being awake and feeling alive. We should all seek a life that makes us feel alive every day.[14:36] - A Ladder On the Wrong WallWhy relentless drive is nothing without purposeJohn describes a conversation he had with someone who obtained every material success, before succumbing to addiction and losing it all. The way he puts it, he had reached the top of the ladder— but the ladder was leaning up against the wrong wall. What are the ladders in our lives? Are we sure we're climbing toward a destination that's worth reaching?[21:28] - The Heroes That Make UsYou don't have to make yourself the protagonist in your storyIn the speaking industry where both Paul and John have made a career, it's easy for some speakers to slip into self-aggrandizing stories of their own achievements. But both our host and our guest prefer to focus on the impact of those who have touched their lives— after all, we are made by the people who shape us.[38:09] - The Power of EmpathyLove and grace through pain and sufferingAfter the fire that burned 100% of John's body and destroyed his parents home, John expected his father to be furious. Instead, he expressed how proud he was of John for getting through this tremendous trial. John never forgot the lesson in this experience— that a little empathy toward the people we love can transform their lives and our own.RESOURCES:[1:21] On Fire and In Awe, by John O'Leary[9:07] Live Inspired Podcast[18:47] Suicide Statistics in the U.S.[28:06] Big Brother Big SisterFollow John:WebsiteFacebookLinkedInInstagramTwitterYoutubeFollow Paul:Keynote Speaking WebsitePlaymakers PodcastThe Power of Playing OffenseLinkedInFacebookTwitterInstagramYoutubeSHOW PARTNER:The WHY InstituteAre you ready to find your ‘why'?

Teen suicides: are we looking at an epidemic? International Suicide Prevention, a 501(c)(3) public charity nonprofit Henderson, Nevada September 25, 2018 For Immediate Release Youth Suicide Statistics • Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for ages 10-24. (2016 CDC WISQARS) • Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for college-age youth and ages 12-18. (2016 CDC WISQARS) • More teenagers and young adults die from suicide than from cancer, heart disease, AIDS, birth defects, stroke, pneumonia, influenza, and chronic lung disease, COMBINED. • Each day in our nation an average of over 3,041 suicide attempts are made by young people, grades 9-12. If these percentages are additionally applied to grades 7 and 8, the numbers would be higher. • Four out of Five teens who attempt suicide have given clear warning signs. • The Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance System (YRBS) is a survey, conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that includes national, state, and local school-based representative samples of 9th through 12th grade students. The purpose is to monitor priority health-risk behaviors that contribute to the leading causes of death, disability, and social problems among youth in the United States. What is being done to stop and/or reverse this enormous and growing trend? International Suicide Prevention (ISP) has been successfully treating suicidal thoughts since 2006. ISP is the only suicide prevention organization to be using advanced cognitive neuropsychology treatments that have been proven to work on suicidal ideation. At the forefront of this epidemic ISP is developing the first of its kind, self-help suicide prevention mobile app that will treat suicidal ideation among teens. The first step in the development stage is geared to target adolescents ages 5 to 24. Afterwards, ISP is expected to expand this program to include: veterans, military, first responders and seniors. This has all been made possible with the help of behavioral modification scientist Matthew Dovel. Mr. Dovel has been working in the field of cognitive neuropsychology for over 3 decades. He is responsible for discovering a code that unlocks the secret to effectively modifying human behavior.

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention reports that nearly 45,000 Americans commit suicide each year. The average rate of suicide in 2015 was 13.26 per 100,000 in the population. In the same year, the states of Montana, Wyoming and Alaska were the top 3 states for suicide attempts, way above the national average, and the state of New Jersey was the state with the least amount of suicides per 100,000 residents. On today's episode, in light of the recent suicides of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain, we wanted to have a conversation about trends, motivations and facts around this public health and social issue, as well as share some ideas on how to prevent or reduce suicide in the population.

Suicide means the process of purposely ending one’s own life. Nearly one million people worldwide commit suicide each year, and somewhere between 10 -20 million attempt suicide.
