Logan Paul & Kevin Hines Are Saving Lives

Saving Lives With Logan Paul & Kevin Hines!There are some conversations that hit deeper than words can explain.Today, I sat down once again with one of my dearest friends, a man I truly consider a brother, the one and only Logan Paul.Together, we revisited what’s been one of the most impactful collaborations of my life. Years ago, Logan and I came together to tell a story that mattered, one rooted in pain, redemption, and the fight to stay alive. The Be Here Tomorrow Video (With Over 30Million views) That collaboration didn’t just spark awareness… it saved lives.Hundreds of people have written to us over the years to say that our videos, our conversations, stopped them from taking their lives. That’s the ripple effect of honesty, empathy, and redemption. It’s proof that when you tell the truth, when you show the hard parts, healing happens.And now… we’re taking that mission to a whole new level.🎬 The official trailer for our forthcoming film “Death Bridge” launches today at https://www.DeathBridge.Film and across all social platforms.This film dives deep into the human toll of suicides at the Golden Gate Bridge not only the thousands of lives lost there, but the ripple effect of pain and perseverance carried by the people left behind.It’s about the ironworkers who’ve seen what no one should ever see.The Coast Guard who’ve pulled too many from the water.The Bridge Patrol officers who fight every single day to save one more life.And the families whose worlds were forever changed in the shadow of that red span.“Death Bridge” is more than a film, it’s a movement. A powerful, heart-wrenching, world-changing call to action. It’s about building nets and railings at icons for suicide all around the globe, so that no other landmark ever becomes a symbol of despair again.This story will move mountains. It will save lives.And it will show the world that hope can rise even from the darkest waters.🙏 A special thank you to BridgeRail.net, founded by my father Patrick Hines, alongside Dave Hull and Paul Muller, for dedicating their lives to building the very nets that now protect others from the same fate I once faced.Because of our combined work, and the countless advocates, survivors, and allies who’ve stood with us, we are proving that change is possible.Hope is real.Lives can be saved.And together, we can build bridges not to death, but to life.#BeHereTomorrow #DeathBridge #KevinHinesStory #LoganPaul #GoldenGateBridge #SuicidePrevention #MentalHealthAwareness #HopeNation #BridgeRailFoundation #FilmForChange

Dr. John Gibson | Cameron’s Legacy | Hope in Action | Hinesights Podcast | EP 161

HINESIGHTS Podcast — Dr. John Gibson: Cameron’s Legacy, Hope in Action

Content note: suicide loss, survival, and recovery.

In this deeply personal, compassionate conversation, I sit down with Dr. John Gibson, father of Cameron, who died by suicide. John and his wife have transformed unimaginable grief into life-saving purpose through The Canmore Trust, a UK charity funding lived-experience education, compassionate training, and safer systems of care. Please visit and support their work: https://TheCanmoreTrust.co.uk

John shares a moment that changed both of our lives. He was sitting in a seminar at the International Association for Suicide Prevention Congress in Vienna, Austria when I walked in. He recognized me and whispered, “This is Kevin Hines,” and he began to cry. Some time earlier, during his own darkest hour after losing Cameron, John had found a YouTube clip of me describing my instant regret the millisecond I leapt from the Golden Gate Bridge. That message cut across his suicidal thinking—and stopped him from taking his life.

After that, John picked up my second memoir, The Art of Being Broken. He told me he read it in four hours flat, and in those pages he discovered the power of narrative—that telling your story can save other lives. He felt a spiritual calling to speak Cameron’s name, share their family’s journey, and move hope into action. Today, through The Canmore Trust and his courageous testimony, Cameron’s story is saving lives.

If you’ve lost someone, if you’re supporting a loved one, or if you’re carrying your own pain, I hope this episode meets you with gentleness and strength. Please listen, share it forward, and consider supporting The Canmore Trust: https://TheCanmoreTrust.co.uk

Hope In Action | A Conversation W/Didi Hirsch CEO Lyn Morris | Hinesights Podcast | EP 159

Release Date: August 28, 2025

Today I sit down with a leader I deeply admire and a true force for good: Lyn Morris, LMFT, CEO of Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services.

We also explore what courageous leadership looks like in a time when demand is soaring and families need help now. (California Hospital Association)

Didi Hirsch has provided mental health, substance use, and suicide prevention services since 1942, and today serves hundreds of thousands each year through whole-person care and crisis response. Lyn stepped into the CEO role in 2022, after leading critical clinical and crisis programs across the agency—including the Suicide Prevention Center. I’m grateful for her wisdom, her steadiness, and her heart. (Didi Hirsch, PR Newswire)

TOP 10 WAYS SOCIAL MEDIA CAN SAVE A LIFE | HINESIGHTS PODCAST | SPECIAL EPISODE

🔗 The Top 10 Ways Social Media Can Save Lives 🔗

Did you know that social media can be a life-saving tool for those struggling with mental health or suicidal ideation? 🌍❤️ I’m proud to share that my social media model, now backed by scientific research, has been shown to not only save lives but also increase help-seeking behaviors and improve outreach to crisis centers, call and text lines. 📞💬

In a groundbreaking study, researchers found that when we share authentic stories of resilience and hope, mental health struggles become less isolating, and those in pain feel more supported. 📲 The study concluded that positive, actionable content – like the work we’re doing together here – sparks critical conversations and directs individuals to life-saving resources.

So, how can social media be used to help others in crisis? Here are the Top 10 Ways:

  1. Breaking the Silence – Creating space for open, non-judgmental discussions around mental health.

  2. Increased Accessibility – Making crisis resources easier to find and access with one click.

  3. Authentic Storytelling – Sharing real stories of survival and recovery encourages others to reach out.

  4. Real-Time Support – Immediate engagement and connection to mental health professionals or peers.

  5. Educational Content – Providing information about warning signs and mental health tools.

  6. Visible Resources – Featuring helplines and text lines prominently in content.

  7. Building a Supportive Community – Fostering online spaces where people feel heard and validated.

  8. Engagement & Encouragement – Offering words of hope, empowerment, and validation in the comment sections.

  9. Reducing Stigma – Challenging the stereotypes and misconceptions about mental health.

  10. Promoting Self-Care – Sharing tips, reminders, and resources to nurture mental well-being.

✨ The study proves that when we harness social media for good, we can create a ripple effect that saves lives. Let’s continue to create media for good—media that uplifts, inspires, and directs people toward life-saving help.

Together, we have the power to change the narrative on mental health. 💪💙

👇 Drop a comment and tell me how you’re using your social media to spread positivity and save lives!

🎙️ EP 155 – Transforming Grief into Purpose | A Pain Shared Is A Pain Halved

An In-Depth Conversation With Suicide Loss Survivors Chris Coulter & Randall Scott White

In this deeply moving and powerful episode of the HINESIGHTS Podcast, I sit down with two extraordinary human beings—Chris Coulter and Randall Scott White—who have each experienced the unthinkable: the loss of a loved one to suicide. Through pain, devastation, and heartbreak, they have chosen to channel their grief into purpose, advocacy, and community healing.

Together, we explore the raw reality of surviving suicide loss, what healing really looks like, and how speaking the truth out loud can save lives. Their courage to share is a living testament to the phrase: “A pain shared is a pain halved.”

Whether you’re grieving, supporting someone who is, or working to prevent suicide in your community—this conversation is for you. It’s about connection, resilience, and choosing to keep going, one day at a time.

Say It. Repeat It. Believe It. | Your Words Rewire Your Brain | Special Episode | Hiniesights Podcast

This episode is for anyone who’s ever looked in the mirror and thought, ‘I’m not enough.’ Let me tell you something—your words are wiring your brain. Backed by science, your self-talk isn’t just emotional—it’s biological. This is neuroplasticity. This is epigenetics. And this is your moment to flip the script. Say it with me: I am loved. I am healing. I matter. Now let’s talk about how this changes everything…”


📝 EPISODE DESCRIPTION:

Your brain is listening to every word you say. In this episode, we explore the groundbreaking neuroscience behind positive self-talk—and how it physically changes your brain and even your DNA. This isn’t self-help fluff. This is science. This is healing. This is your wake-up call.


📲 Say it. Repeat it. Believe it. Then watch your life rise.
