Show Notes

Today’s question is 'how can you be a good friend to someone who is suicidal?' and I’m in conversation with Joe Hayman who is the managing director at the Holocaust Education Trust; but for the context of this conversation he’s here as my friend.

If you've followed me for any time, you'll have heard me talk about Joe.  He's been an incredible friend and he kindly agreed to talk honestly with me about a very difficult time in both of our lives when I was very, very unwell.

Please be kind in your feedback on this one.  It was not easy for Joe nor I; but I think it's a really important conversation and I hope after listening to it, you'll understand a little more about why I talk so often and so fondly of my good friend Joe.

You can follow Joe on twitter @JoeHayman or on linkedin.
