Vet Chats

It takes us some time to accept the title of veteran. We often distance ourselves from the military and later find peace with our service.
This could not be truer of Katie's story!
Listen to hear her infamous exit from the Navy after 10 years as a cook. She is now a successful business owner in the wonderful land of Wisconsin!
I hope you enjoy this one, I know I did.

We get deep as Tim shares his up and down journey with PTSD after serving at the height of the Iraq war through 2 deployments. Like many, Tim did not seek help right away and suffered in silence. Fast forward to today and he will release his debut novel this April which is heavily woven with inspiration from his own journey. Be sure to check him out and sign up for his giveaway!

On Vet Chats this week we welcome GySgt Jesse Esterly. 18-year Marine Corps Veteran, Jesse is the author of ‘Born in a Bar: The Untold Stories of Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children.’ 

This book comes with a warning- it's not for everyone. You will understand why after listening!

I have personally read this and laughed the entire time, definitely not something you want to read before bed.
