Honouring Canadian War Heroes

Hello Loyal NO BS VETERAN HEALTH NEWSLETTER Community,

We hope this newsletter finds you well and eager for another engaging episode of The Hard To Kill Podcast. In Episode 179, I sat down with Giselle Drew Walsh , an executive board member of an organization that honours Canadian Armed Forces | Forces armées canadiennes members for their valiant efforts in conflicts like Afghanistan

What Giselle Wants To Change

In this powerful episode, Giselle shares their belief that organizations, such as the military, should place a higher priority on the long-term health and well-being of individuals. She shed light on issues like soft tissue injuries, post-traumatic stress (PTS), and mild traumatic brain injuries that continue to impact many service members. Giselle's journey to discovering her passion for advocating for military personnel's well-being began only six months ago when she came across this unique organization.

Recognizing Our War Heroes

Recognizing the bureaucratic obstacles that prevent individuals like Jess Larochelle from receiving awards like the Victoria Cross, Giselle emphasizes the importance of recognizing gallantry and battlefield presence in both past and future conflicts. What makes this episode particularly poignant is how personal it is to Giselle. Through their own emotional pain and experiences growing up, she was inspired to bring about change.

Giselle found solace in utilizing the power of the Internet and a microphone, starting The Breaking Dress Regs podcast to create a platform for people who may lack resources or training to deal with their situations by breaking the rules and having daring conversations.

Giselle encourages us to question, engage, and have uncomfortable conversations about the treatment of military personnel. By doing so, we honour those who have served and shed light on the realities they face.

Las Vegas Update

Myself, including Giselle and a growing list of "Team Canada" will be heading down to the Military Influencer Conference on 7 Nov 23 to network and share our amazing business goals with a group of like-minded "vetrepreneurs".

We will be podcasting and taking it all in, so make sure to follow us and our journey as we build a stronger, international community of veterans getting leaner, meaner and harder to kill.

Thank you for being a part of community and for joining us in these important conversations. Keep spreading the word, and together, let's create a space where impactful conversations thrive.

Train Hard, Fight Easy,

Dave
