Life doesn’t always follow a linear path, and my journey to the classroom is proof of that. As a veteran, I traded the structure and pace of military service for the intellectual rigor of university life—a transition that is as challenging as it is rewarding.

Being a non-traditional student means bringing a different perspective to the table. It means balancing the responsibilities of a veteran's life, the demands of a high-pressure academic environment, and the ongoing, intentional work of managing my mental health. For me, success isn’t just about the grades; it’s about maintaining my Standard of Excellence while navigating the complexities of post-service life.

I am sharing this journey to normalize the conversation around the intersection of military experience and mental wellness. Through this series, I am documenting the wins, the setbacks, and the grit it takes to pursue a Bachelor of Social Work, proving it’s never too late to go back to school and chase your dreams. Let’s go to college!

Living with Bipolar 1 isn’t just a medical diagnosis; it’s a daily navigation of life, growth, and balancing the extremes. In this podcast, I’m getting real about what that journey actually looks like—from the highs and lows to managing it all alongside college and building a future. No fluff, just the honest perspective.
