The military experience creates challenges most people don’t understand. And while there are many great organizations helping heal the physical wounds of battle, it’s often the invisible wounds that go unrecognized.
The Warrior’s Journey exists to connect warriors with warriors to help heal those invisible wounds. Each week, we’re having conversations with military thought-leaders, service providers, and warriors with personal stories of healing. They not only recognize these invisible wounds but offer advice and services for helping overcome them and for finding true resilience.
In cooperation with other military partnerships, foundations and nonprofits, The Warrior’s Journey is able to present a wide range of resources that cover the unique challenges that warriors and their families face, both downrange and at home.
