On this episode, we’re talking about PTSD within the veteran and first responder community — the stuff people don’t always see, the battles that happen after the uniform comes off, and what it really takes to keep moving forward when life gets heavy.

In this conversation, I’m joined by Donna Michaels, author and CEO of the Heroes United to Heal Foundation, and retired Navy SEAL Master Chief Ross Munro. We get into the realities of trauma, what healing actually looks like, and how people can find purpose again even after the hardest seasons of their lives.

This episode is for anyone who’s lived it, supports someone who has, or wants to better understand what so many carry in silence.

The truth is important.

I was falsely accused of misconduct. I wish there was video to go along, but the agency only recorded the audio during my name foesrinh hearing in 2021.

Enjoy 🫶🏻🤘🏻
