The foods you pack your lunch play a part in shaping your mental health. Those easy-to-find, high-sugar foods might make your hunger go away, but they could also be causing your mental health extra strain. Multiple studies, including one by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, have shown that a Mediterranean diet can decrease PTSD symptoms. What you can do: ?? Pack your lunch (and dinners!) with goodies that include whole grains, diversely colored vegetables, olive oil, seafood, and more. Here's a good article with some tips: https://bit.ly/3WsoRj2 ??

关于我们
There are many veteran-focused non-profits to choose from, but it can be hard to understand how many people they help, or to calculate how effective their approaches are. Warriors’ Ascent offers a five-day, research-backed program with an annual track record of success. Donors equip participants with powerful tools they can use every day that are proven to not only prevent suicide, but also improve the lives of veterans and their families.

It's International Women's Day, and what better way to honor it than by looking back at just a few of the inspiring women who served our country at home and abroad. If you don't recognize these names and titles, each of these represent the stories of women brave enough to be the "first" to go before many others in their field. ? Women of the Red Cross Motor Corps (WWI) ? Georgia Ann Robinson (LAPD) ? Ann Dunnwoody (US Army) ? Kristen Griest (US Army) #WomensHistoryMonth #InternationalWomensDay

This is the full speech from our last Celebration Dinner. Steve owned that room! His message is worth the listen.
Christian | Father | Husband | U.S. Marine Corps Veteran | Executive Physical Security Leader | Risk Management | Investigations | Executive Protection | Global Leadership Experience
I’m really nobody and my story is average compared to most, but I’d love you get my message out to anyone, or any group that’d listen, I think it could help someone. My name is Steven Svestka, and I’m a U.S. Marine veteran and former police officer with firsthand experience navigating the toughest battles—both in the line of duty and within myself. I’ve faced trauma head-on, and through my journey of faith in Christ and the power of trauma therapy, I’ve found healing and purpose. Today, I’m passionate about sharing my story to inspire others—whether they’re struggling with their own battles or supporting those who are. My mission is to bring hope, resilience, and practical tools for healing to audiences who need it most. I’d love the opportunity to share my journey and help others discover that recovery and strength are possible. Thanks and God bless #perfectlybentgang

One of the looks of Warriors' Ascent. You might know us from the big moments—our cohorts, large events, or even the podcast—but this is also who we are. Tuesdays mean planning, brainstorming, learning, and strategizing. It’s where ideas turn into action, where we make sure every detail of our mission is carried out with heart and intention. Because healing doesn’t happen by accident. It takes work, commitment, and a team dedicated to lifting others up. ?? What’s something you’re strategizing or planning for right now? Drop it in the comments—we’d love to hear! #PostTraumaticGrowth #ItsAllAboutLiving #police #veteran
