John Brogden AM has walked a very public journey of success, failure and redemption.

From the youngest ever leader of a major political party in Australia at the age 33, to a very public suicide attempt and the end of his political career, to a successful career as a Chairman and CEO, he has experienced the highs and lows of a very public life.

Today he is an outstanding advocate for mental illness. He shares his own journey of suicide and depression with honesty and bravery and challenges the common misunderstandings of living and working with a mental illness.
