This book examines the root causes of veteran isolation, from PTSD, hyper-vigilance, and emotional numbness to the loss of identity and purpose that military life once provided. Many veterans return feeling like strangers in their own communities, struggling to connect with civilians who don’t understand their experiences.

These barriers leave many feeling unseen, unsupported, and without the camaraderie that once gave them strength.

Did your childhood feel like something you survived instead of enjoyed? Painful childhoods naturally result in many sticky obstacles to adult success, ranging from distrust in others to self-sabotaging thoughts and behaviors.

Have you ever felt lost in a world that demands you “move on” while your soul is still fighting to breathe?

By understanding how you were affected, you can start on the path to healing and personal growth.
