Anthony Dyer is a United States Air Force veteran who served as a Combat Special Missions Aviator for two decades plus. He flew high-risk missions in some of the world’s most dangerous war zones and when he came home to retire, he found the transition back to non-military life a struggle. To put it bluntly, Anthony spiraled into a very dark place. But from that very same place, he found his voice in the form of taking pen to paper, writing it all down, releasing it all in the process. He's now an author and mental health advocate, using his life experience to help others. As he writes in his novel, Moon Child: A Memoir: “You can train for combat, but not what comes after.” Good side note: We recorded this episode on Veteran's Day—which was not planned but turned out to be the perfect time to do it. Gotta love when the universe lines these kinda good things up.
