The Power of a Promise2Live

It's common to experience dark times and dark feelings, so common that every 40 seconds someone dies by suicide. And for every death, there are 25 attempts. There's a global movement to change that by encouraging people to make a promise to reach out for help. In this episode, FM100.3's Rebecca Cressman is joined by CEO and Founder Brandy Vega who shares how her experience as a mother inspired her to create Promise2Live and the details on an upcoming Global Live Stream & Gala on September 10th with well-known musicians, actors, and hosts who are coming together to save lives. More details at Promise2Live.org.
