“From Depression to Suicide.
From Surviving to Redemption.”
I’m Luke, and following my own tragic story of teen depression and attempted suicide, it’s now my mission to empower other teens to recognize, overcome, and be unashamed of their mental health challenges. Will you join my movement to save even one precious life? Read more…

I’m Moving! (AKA the Chapter in My Life)
It seems that every time I create an update post saying I’ll be better about writing to all y’all (foreshadowing btdubs), life throws another wrench in my plans. This time, it’s a big honking monkey wrench…but a good one (I’m writing this very early in the morning, so bad jokes and analogies inbound).
Let me backtrack. This year, I’ve felt quite antsy. I’ve wanted something new out of 2019 but didn’t know where to put that energy. I embarked on some journeys by partnering and consulting with different companies, but I knew that it wasn’t the full picture. There was something else. And […]
When It All Becomes Too Much to Handle
This is two months past due.
I’ve had to make some choices this year after I was slapped in the face by life. I learned the hard way again that you can only go so long adding more and more responsibilities and projects to my life before I burn out or have to remove something.

Some have truly become unashamed and are making the most of their bad situation and illness. I wanted to showcase them. Display their work and celebrate how far they’ve come in their journey.
First, there is Christine Frey. I got to know her and her story and immediately wanted to do everything I could to help […]
Going Back to My Roots
It’s been six years.
It’s been six years since I tried to take my life and my entire world flipped literally and figuratively upside down.
It’s been five years since I started this blog and began sharing my story publically with anyone who would listen.
It’s been four years since I walked on the stage and began speaking to thousands of people every year.
Not gonna lie, I feel a little old. And recently, I’ve been busy. I’m scheduling talks for the year, working with companies to tell their story like I first told mine, and working on the neverending stream of ideas that won’t leave my brain […]
