Warrior Mindset and Combat Veterans
My most profound learning about the WarriorMindset comes from those who have utilized it in actual combat.
My father is a WW2 Veteran and my Uncle was a Purple Heart recipient... While I did not serve in our armed forces, I’m honored to serve those who have served as a mental health professional. These brave souls (First Responders Included) step into danger to protect our communities and country.
I am deeply grateful to them and am a student of their lessons and experiences.
There are many of these folks who have gone on to teach others about the warrior mindset and here are a few who I study from and am inspired by…
