#61 The Seasons of Our Lives - with Sally Spencer & Jerry Colonna




The Reboot Podcast show

Summary: Sally Spencer-Thomas is a psychologist who found herself in a moment in which she was not prepared when her brother died of suicide. After that significant event in her life, Sally poured much of her life into engaging leaders and finding bold, gap-filling solutions for suicide prevention in schools, workplaces, and communities. Driven by the memory of her brother, Sally dove into her work, and along the way, she found a community and purpose around her brother’s legacy. Over the last 14 years, Sally encountered her own onerous moments of depression. From these moments, she came to understand the power of community and the importance of a caring person. On her journey, Sally has become more attuned to asking, “What is this moment teaching me? What can I do to learn here?” a testament to her resilience. Now, she’s facing big life transitions in both her work and her role as a parent, and she finds herself listening for what her inner voice is saying as she’s wondering, “Who am I, now, in this season of my life?”
