On our last episode of the Suicide Awareness Month series, I interview Aaron Wanserski, host of the podcast Center for Suicide Awareness. This US-based organization is dedicated to preventing suicide through proactive education, training, emotional support, collaboration, and intervention.

In this interview, Aaron shares his personal story of suicidal ideation and how leaving his job as a police officer sent him on a different path. At the time, he knew little about mental illness, but with the support of his wife, he decided to change his life around.
