The Power of Being Seen: How Human Connection Saves Lives with Julie De Jesus

What if being seen—truly seen—could save a life?

In this episode of Silicon Slopes Mental Health Momentum, Dr. David Morgan talks with Julie De Jesus, a keynote speaker, author of I See You: How Compassionate Connection Saves Lives, and host of the I See You podcast.

Julie shares her deeply personal journey from a mental health breakdown during her student teaching years to becoming one of today’s most authentic voices for human connection. She reveals how a simple act of compassion from a professor—“Try again tomorrow”—helped her reclaim hope and purpose.

Together, David and Julie explore:

The difference between being “nice” and being real
Why vulnerability is the new leadership superpower
How human connection builds resilience and prevents burnout
The quiet, life-changing power of compassion in the workplace

Julie’s message is clear: human connection is a soft skill, but it’s also a survival skill. This conversation will leave you thinking differently about how you lead, listen, and live, and how allowing yourself to be seen can change everything.
