Overview
- On Monday, June 29, 2026, Kelly told the Glow Up Your Life podcast that in a post-1990s period she had a phase when she did not want to live.
- She recalled a history of severe losses and illness, including the early death of her mother, the later death of a sister, and her own breast cancer diagnosis, and she is now 56 and a mother of two.
- Kelly said a decades-long habit of focusing on gratitude repeatedly "saved her life" and that asking a higher power or God for strength was a key source of support.
- She urged listeners that gratitude can be learned, comparing it to training a muscle or learning to run and offering the practice as a practical coping strategy.
- The reports present her story as human-interest testimony and include suicide-prevention hotline numbers (Telefonseelsorge 0800-1110111 and 0800-1110222) to guide readers in crisis.
