Kelsie Sheren is a Canadian Forces Veteran who served in Afghanistan. From a small town, she has travelled the globe and navigated the best and worst of what our world has to offer, and as a wife and a mother, she wants to make a difference. While she battles with severe PTSD, she is also a young female entrepreneur on a mission to change the world by healing the people who help to defend all of our freedom. It is her goal to help other struggling Veterans and first responders through charitable donations made via her fast-growing jewelry and accessory business, and her memoir, Brass & Unity.

Joe and Radders stop by to talk about all kinds of things, including: the difference between operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, anti piracy work, the frustrations of not being able to hit people in the work place, and much more.

Veteran State Of Mind does not condone any of the reckless activities discussed in this podcast (including joining the army. Seems a bit dangerous now that we look back on it).

Enjoy!
