Manage episode 436195497 series 3471536
What if hope could be the bridge between mental hellness and mental wellness? In our latest episode of "Keep Hope Alive," we bring you the incredible journey of David Woods Bartley, affectionately known as Woody, and his loyal pug, Lexi. Woody recounts his life, filled with both heartache and triumph. From losing his father to lung cancer and battling severe depression, to becoming a father figure to his partner's children, Woody's narrative is a testament to resilience and the power of hope.
Join us as Woody bravely discusses the darkest periods of his life, including his struggle with insomnia, reliance on Ambien, and the trauma of abuse at a young age. Despite these challenges, Woody and his wife have successfully run an animal sanctuary, offering a sanctuary not just for animals but also for their own souls. Woody sheds light on the importance of self-care practices, from diet and exercise to the life-changing impact of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). His story underscores that seeking treatment is an act of courage, not weakness.
This episode doesn't just stay rooted in Woody's experiences; it also honors the extraordinary musical achievements of Richmond, a professional violinist with an illustrious career. We celebrate his journey from Juilliard to playing in front of massive audiences. Through these deeply personal stories, we emphasize the significance of compassionate support, connection, and emotional awareness as pillars for overcoming life's hardships. Tune in for an episode rich with hope, resilience, and the sheer power of human connection.
