Join John Brogden in conversation with two profiled Tasmanians: Senator Jacqui Lambie and former ALP Senator Nick Sherry.
Every day, nine Australians take their own lives. Nineteen years ago, John Brogden came very close to adding his name to these statistics. But John survived and, since his recovery, he has become a passionate voice for mental health and suicide prevention. Now he is the Honorary President of LifeLine International.
Personally and professionally, John knows how urgent it is to talk openly about suicide, and to provide people in despair with a way back when they are at their lowest point. Giving hope to those who think there is no other answer is critical. John is living proof that it’s possible to survive and thrive.
Now, in Profiles in Hope, John has gathered together some incredible Australians to tell their stories. With contributions from people such as James Packer, Jacqui Lambie, Tom Boyd, Layne Beachley, Preston Campbell and Ian Thorpe, alongside powerful stories of ordinary Aussies, these deeply personal accounts of survival, recovery and lives of purpose are a balm for the vulnerable and a beacon of light to those struggling. This book is for those at risk and for the people who love them and don’t know how to help.
All royalties earned from the sale of this book will go to Lifeline.
Join John, Jacqui and Nick in the Afterword Cafe. The event will be opened by Tasmanian Premier Jeremy Rockcliff.
