Today's guest on the Mitlin Money Mindset™ is Dr. Christine Moutier, the Chief Medical Officer of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). Christine knows the impact of suicide firsthand. After losing colleagues she dedicated herself to fighting this leading cause of death. She has testified before the US Congress and provided multiple congressional briefings on suicide prevention. She has also presented to the White House, spoken at the National Academy of Sciences, and co-anchored CNN's Emmy award-winning Finding Hope a suicide prevention town hall. Dr. Moutier is the go-to expert in the area of suicide for virtually every news outlet and publication. Suicide prevention and mental health is an area of great importance to me after losing my brother-in-law in 2004. I thought there would be no better way to highlight Mental Health Awareness Month than to have Christine on the show.
