Join Laura Turner and her guest Tim Peck.

After an esteemed and well established career as a detective in the Victoria Police, Tim seemed to be the very embodiment of a competent and successful police officer who threw everything into his career. However in 2014 he had reached breaking point that nobody was able to foresee – he was struggling and willing to commit suicide. In this discussion, Laura speaks with Tim about his path to recovery and how he uses his experiences to assist others going through similar circumstances, and that help is available.

June 27 was post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Awareness Day, and Tim has dedicated his life to become a part of Phoenix Australia, an organisation dedicated to supporting and assisting those who suffer from PTSD. Phoenix Australia is Australia’s National Centre of Excellence in Posttraumatic Mental Health.

Listen to his courageous and insightful story.
