I set off in my car with a question:
“What if our veteran community had a space to share what their experience was like?
A space that held the positive lessons alongside the negative experiences?
Not to stay stuck in the past but to take control of the narrative and find a way to be grateful for the lessons learned through our experiences. What if, by having these conversations, we could create space for something that could benefit vets and the people who had not walked in our shoes?
I was tired of hearing about how many veterans were killing themselves and feeling like I wasn’t able to do anything.
