Content warning – suicide.


You’d be forgiven for thinking that a podcast episode about suicide would be hard to listen to; my hope is that this episode changes your mind. My guest this week, the wonderful Dannielle Miller OAM, shares her expertise around this hard-to-talk-about, highly sensitive topic, with such conviction and compassion you’ll finish the episode feeling empowered.


There are countless take-aways from this conversation, many could help save a life. Dannielle helps us to understand the complex factors that can ultimately lead a person to want to end their life (it’s never just one); the importance of compassionate, open and honest conversations and how we can all learn to be suicide first-aiders; suicide contagion and why the media rules around suicide are in place; she shines a bright light on suicide myths so they no longer get in the way of our understanding and action and so much more. This is an episode for all of us, and especially for those of us who are parents, but if it’s not for you I completely understand.


Dannielle Miller OAM is the co-founder and CEO of Enlighten Education, a best-selling author, teen educator, speaker, media commentator and Director of Education and Special Projects at Women’s Community Shelters. In 2021 Dannielle was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for service to education, to woman, and youth. In 2018 she was one of four Finalists for the NSW Premier’s Award for Woman of the Year, and the winner of the Suicide Prevention Australia Life Award for excellence in media reporting. Dannielle also launched the global social change initiative, The School Toilet Project, encouraging schools to let students reimagine these often bleak spaces.
