Ep 12 - How to Spot Silent Cries for Help and Take Action with Emma White

This week on Embracing Life Again, Catherine welcomes Emma White, USA Today’s 2024
Woman of the Year and a passionate mental health advocate. Emma shares her deeply
personal story of overcoming depression, bullying, and a life-threatening battle with suicidal
thoughts as a teenager.
As the Youth Suicide Prevention Coordinator for Nevada’s Department of Education, Emma
draws from her professional expertise and lived experience. She offers parents key behavioral
signs to watch for, explains how certain types of humor can signal distress, and underscores
the importance of asking direct, sometimes uncomfortable questions.
Emma and Catherine also discuss suicide prevention tools, including the "Bark" app for
monitoring kids’ online activity. Emma’s message is clear: You are never alone, and seeking
help is a courageous first step.
Tune in for this life-changing conversation about resilience, advocacy, and creating a world
where Life Is Worth It.
