Mental Health Through Giving Help - Sgt Q Aaron Quinonez (ep. 747)


Listen Later

Our guest endured a rough upbringing before becoming a proud Marine right out of high school. He was trained to fight the enemy and was prepared for war. When he volunteered for a combat tour in Iraq, little did he know his real battle would be fought in his mind.

After eight years of military service, Sgt Q suffered from depression, anger, and panic attacks and was diagnosed with PTSD. 

Sgt Q traded the battlefield for the mission field and found healing and purpose through building homes and churches, feeding children, and supplying precious hope to struggling communities worldwide.

He felt called to form QMissions, a pathway for veterans—SgtQ’s fellow warfighters—to replace the battle scars of their minds with the joy of serving.

Now, Sgt Q is the award-winning author of Healing Thru Service originally aimed at struggling veterans, which also offers help for anyone in crisis and may be one's ticket to a more fulfilled life. He went from being homeless and on the brink of suicide to starting the multi-million dollar company with over 100 employees, Reliable Commercial Cleaning, founding the veteran non-profit, Q Missions, and the health-tech startup, Q Actual 2.0.
