This week’s Urban Valor episode features U.S. Navy Seal veteran, Johnny
Sotello.

Johnny was a breacher and a point man in the Navy Seal Teams, which ended up taking a toll on his mental state. He tells a story about a moment of laughter he shared with his teammates as they attempted to outrun rockets launched by the enemy in Iraq. Johnny leaves us with a bucket full of effective treatments for veterans suffering from PTSD and TBI as he continues to give back by helping as many veterans as he can.

This is usually where we'd tell you all about Urban Valor and our mission to help share stories of all heroic Veterans, while raising awareness in the key areas of Veteran homelessness, Veteran Mental Health, and Veteran transition, or any Veteran in need.

But instead, we'd like to take the opportunity while sharing this incredibly powerful story and advice shared by Johnny Sotello, who is one of the toughest, and most incredible men I know, and just say, there's absolute STRENGTH and TOUGHNESS in getting help. There's power in recognizing you need help. We all need help.

One click, or one dial of your phone can change your life. We have no affiliation with Veterans Crisis Line, but believe what they're doing is incredible, as they offer a free and confidential support line to Veterans in need.

Please, if Johnny spoke to you, and you found yourself recognizing symptoms, or thinking about your own pain and struggle with mental health, reach out to Veterans Crisis Line and have a private conversation so you can be on the road to getting better. We appreciate you HERO, thank you for serving our country, now, you deserve all the help and support in the world.

Be strong, reach out, and get it here:
