114 | A Story of Anger and Redemption with Blake Mattocks
Is your life happening to you or for you? This question trips me up at least once a week when I hit a setback or run into a feeling that I can't shake. A lot of those times those feelings are rooted in a deeper feeling that I haven't looked at or dealt with. And to quote Elsa, its typically something I just needed to "let it go."

112 – Perfectly Imperfect with Gloria Rendon
Do you hide your life stories from your kids? Veterans live a very rich life, we have stories, we have the depth to our views, and we know how to connect with others.
