In this compelling episode of the MilVet Podcast, host Beau Higgins is joined by Cassidy Nolan, a United States Marine Corps Veteran turned advocate for veterans' mental health. Cassidy opens up about his personal journey, from his time in service to his struggles with PTSD and the challenges many veterans face transitioning back to civilian life.
Through candid conversation, Cassidy discusses the importance of mental health awareness in the military community and the vital work being done to support veterans in their recovery. He shares insights from his own healing process, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and the impact of finding purpose after service.
This episode is a raw and inspiring look at the hidden wounds of war and the strength it takes to confront them. Cassidy’s story is a reminder that veterans are not defined by their struggles, but by their resilience, courage, and the support they give one another.
In addition, Cassidy talks about his involvement with Mach 1 Hot Sauce, a veteran-owned business that blends bold flavors with a passion for supporting the veteran community. With each bottle, they not only spice up your meals but also contribute to veteran programs, helping those who served find new purpose. Tune in for a powerful conversation about healing, hope, and the ongoing fight for veterans' well-being, all while supporting a great cause!
