    🎙️ Episode Title: "Still Here: Suicide Prevention, Survival & Hope with Clare Chambers"

    In this powerful and heartfelt episode, Mike & Dave sits down with Clare Chambers, a senior suicide prevention therapist at James’ Place in Liverpool. Clare brings a wealth of lived and professional experience to the conversation from her 23 years as a probation officer to her current role supporting men in suicidal crisis.

    A survivor herself, Clare openly shares her journey of living with Bipolar Disorder and how her own suicide attempt led to a life-changing career pivot into counselling. Her story is one of resilience, transformation, and radical empathy.

    Clare also reflects on her involvement in the Baton of Hope Manchester tour alongside former guest Frankie Feeney, offering an inside view into one of the UK’s most impactful suicide awareness movements.

    This episode is a deep dive into what it really means to save lives, not just clinically, but human-to-human.

    🔗 Themes: Suicide prevention, lived experience, mental health support, professional reinvention, trauma-informed care, peer connection
