Keep Our Troops Alive: A Conversation with Toby Ramirez-Johnson
from Lessons from Leaders with Brian Beckcom Hosted by Brian Beckcom: Computer scientist, philosopher, and Trial lawyer
In this episode, Brian Beckcom speaks with Toby Ramirez-Johnson, author and suicide prevention advocate, about mental wellness and suicide prevention. Toby is the author of "The Last Seven Days," a book she wrote after her brother, a U.S. Army Sergeant who served two tours of combat in Afghanistan, committed suicide. To raise awareness about the troubling mental health disparity that many of our brave servicemen and women face, Toby founded a non-profit organization called "Keep Our Troops Alive" (K.O.T.A.). Toby's organization offers a focus on coping and provides support to families who have experienced the death of a loved one as a result of suicide.
