Change doesn't happen until you see what you have become. Save A Warrior - "SAW" helped me turn around so fast that I saw myself for who I really was. It was scary, but yet, a defining moment in my life as I know I had to change. With SAW, I learned that I have the power to change. With my brothers from my Cohort, I have the support to continue my growth into the best, ordinary version of me. Want more info? Visit saveawarrior.org!

Life is too short to worry about what others are thinking/saying/posting about you. I don't know about you, but I don't have the mental energy to devote to the "haters" or "toxic" people in my life. I barely have enough mental energy for my own issues so why am I going to waste it on someone else or a situation that isn't worth the effort? It may take a severe transformation of mindset, but focus on what really matters. Take care of your mental health first so you can be present for those that really matter.

'I am proud of your progress. " Sometimes you need to hear it. Sometimes you just need to admit it to yourself. Growth is growth. Take note of how far you have come since yesterday, last week, a month ago, etc. You got this! #ptsd #ptsdawareness #ptsgrowth #military #combat #veteran #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #affirmations #proud https://www.instagram.com/p/B5kh6qrAjp-/?igshid=10viickszxvol

It took me a long time to let it go. The anger still burns, but now I don't grasp it so tightly and I don't want to throw it at others. The fact is, it is ok to have anger as it is a human emotion. The reality is that you cannot let that emotion rule your life. Save that anger and let it loose on life or death situations that we trained for. Remember, we are a spiritual being having a human experience!

Honor your progress! Today you are one step ahead of yesterday. We live in a fast food world that delivers instant gratification. We have to commit to honoring our daily growth. Do you document it? Do you speak of it to another? Do you have someone who is keeping you on track? Mental growth is the hardest to track but if you have an outsider watching, they will be able to tell you that the bucketwork is working! Your fellow traveler can keep you on track and your spirits high. If you are a veteran or first responder struggling, please visit saveawarrior.org for the answers you seek.

14 years ago today my 2005 G35 6MT arrived 6 months after ordering to my specifications. It's amazing the friends, experiences and memories that this car has played a part in over the years. More importantly, I am grateful that I can combine my passion with my personal mission of creating awareness. Being able to direct veterans to help, finding them resources and to look them in the eye saying "you are not alone" is what makes it all worth it. My own healing has played a part in this. Through @save_a_warrior_saw , I have learned that my own healing must be my priority before helping others. This journey has been a long one but worth it. What drives you?

The biggest obstacles in our path to recovery from PTS? Ourselves. While there is no cure to ptsd, you can learn to live with it. Therapy help. Counseling helps. Learning a new daily practice helps. Meditation helps. The key to it all is YOU have to be willing to seek the help and guidance to get over our own mindset and learn a new one. Are you a military veteran or first responder struggling? Contact @save_a_warrior_saw directly at saveawarrior.org or DM me so I can share my experiences with you.

Today, I was invited by my cohort brother Larry to speak at the Ohio Veterans Administration meeting representing 16+ Ohio counties. We explained PTS, complex PTS, the veteran/first responder suicide epidemic and how Save A Warrior is reversing the trend. We also both discussed a little of our journey from before and after SAW. We then taught Warrior Meditation™ to a couple veterans that were struggling with PTS and even handed out pamphlets to some that wanted to share SAW with loved ones in their lives. Then we ended up at Mission BBQ, a joint focused on Military and First Responders interior decorations and support. Amazing food and the Manager welcomed us with a free desert and expressed his interest in supporting any future events for Killbuck Creek Distillery, which is co-owned and operated by Larry himself, who also shows support for both military and first responders through his company and decor! What an awesome and amazing day! It's such an honor to be a part of such great things. #pts #ptsgrowth #ptsd #ptsdawareness #military #veteran #firstresponders #saveawarrior #missionbbq #publicspeaking #shareyourstory #VA #career #jobs #roundtable #educate @save_a_warrior_saw @killbuck_creek_distillery @missionbbq (at MISSION BBQ) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvf1hORAH-g/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tcxqjzv9svyx

Change happens based on the amount of effort you put into it. Self discipline and internal drive also plays a huge part. One year ago when I was needing a change, I thought I could do it on my own. The reality is that I needed help. I needed to ask or accept the help offered or given. With the new found tools provided to me, I had to do the bucket work in order to make the change a reality. It is only with the loving support of my family, the @save_a_warrior_saw Shepards and cohort members that I was able to reach the point of change I am currently at today. Do you struggle with pts? Are you military or a first responder? Reach out as you are not alone! Seeking help is the greatest sign of strength.

Truth be told, before my time @save_a_warrior_saw, the road was just full of obstacles and occasional peaks of what laid off in the distance. The dedicated Shepards and founders of saveawarrior.org opened my eyes to the fact that unpacking trauma may be difficult, but the road it leads to is absolutely stunning and full of life. Are you struggling inside? Suicide is no joking matter and there is an escape from it all. If you are a military member or first responder, please reach out for help. Save A Warrior is free and will change your life for the better.

Finding peace can come in many forms, mine happens to come from Warrior Meditation ™ thanks to those dedicated shepards from @save_a_warrior_saw . Their program taught me that for at least 20 minutes a day, I can have peace. Also, this peace can help retrain my brain to process and handle pts differently. If you are military or a first responder that is struggling internally, know that you are not alone. Know that there is help out there for you. Contact me or visit saveawarrior.org to register for their free retreat.
