Vice President of Operations at Pyramid Online Counseling, Robert Plotkin is joined by mental health speaker and educator David Woods Bartley. David discusses his life before and after an August 2011 suicide attempt, when clinical depression and mental illness saw him nearly end his life. David draws frequent connections between mental wellness pillars and stories from a past animal sanctuary, A Chance for Bliss. David outlines mental illness not as a one-time struggle to be overcome, but a life-long challenge that doesn’t need to keep listeners from thriving.
