Alan served his country and then went on to do leadership training in the military as a civilian for a combined 51 years before he recently retired. He met his beautiful wife when he was 69 while overseas and he's been happily married ever since! They we're there with their dog and we had a phenomenal discussion that included some hilariously passionate pleas from Alan as a diehard basketball fan to some other great lessons during this 9th episode of season 1.
Remember you're not alone and you can always dial 988 if you're having a hard day and someone will be there 24/7/365 to help you.
Also remember, you are not alone and the world is a better place with you in it even if on some days you don't feel like it. Asking for help is a true act of courage. Darkness can not drive out darkness, only light can do that. And you are that light.
