MOAA's Never Stop Serving Podcast
Mental Health with HeadStrong Project
Mental Health. It's more than two buzzwords. Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Unfortunately, for many of us in the military, it has been a taboo topic. It's been part of our world, but we don't talk about it. For fear of losing our jobs, our clearances, and our identities, we've kept the conversation of mental health quiet.
Listen to Olivia Nunn speak to retired Marine Veteran and retired 1st responder Matt Kress. He serves as the Chief Strategy Officer at HeadStrong Project, about why their organization can tackle the topic "head" on and do it well.
