TW: PTSD, mental illness, suicide, alcoholism, war violence.

Welcome back R.A.W. listeners! Thank you for joining us on our next episode of the podcast with our special guest and another member of our Really Authentic Men, Andrew! We were so honoured to have him on the podcast and invite you to get comfy and relax into this vulnerable talk!

Andrew shares about his time serving in the Canadian Armed Forces and his amazing Service Dog Riggs. Andrew also talks about his not-for-profit organization Veterans and Everyday Heroes, after growing an idea to spread kindness to veterans and first responders, while crushing the stigma of mental health in men.

It takes so much inner strength to ask for help after struggling with a past trauma or hurt in life, but we hope this episode reminds you that healing is possible when you learn to speak up for yourself again. Your joy matters!

“Trust is a difficult thing with those that have this injury or mental health in general, but please do know that even if the someone in your life doesn’t believe you, that there are plenty of us out there that do.”
