Heat, shock, and friction are well known actions in the Explosive Worker world. The basis of these “safeties” can be applied to every day life. You come in with overwhelming “ heat”, when replying to a conversation using an overly emotional response. You “shock” your repetitive, everyday routine, into something unknown in its progression. You add “friction” to your mind state, by dwelling on past anguish from horrific experiences. Either uplifting, or self destructive, these 3 actions can be shifted and shaped to create something beautiful in life. -do your job... stay hungry... stay humble- “It reinvigorates the basic human reaction to extreme violence....... survive at all cost, even if the price is your humanity.”

    ABOUT Katherine BlackwellBlackwell Mental Performance was founded on a passion for helping others. Since 2014, I've worked with active-duty military which inspired me to go into the field of sport psychology and pursue working with high performers and high-risk occupations. Dealing with my own sports injuries fueled my desire to work with others who've been injured. As a USMC spouse, athlete, and business owner, I understand the strain these lifestyles create, and I know the stigma associated with reaching out for help. My goal is not only to help with symptom reduction but to address the root of the problem and then help you work towards optimal performance. I take a solution-focused holistic approach when working with individuals, recognizing the importance of the mind-body connection. I am straightforward and take an active role in helping you achieve your goals so be prepared to do the work!

    Nate sits down with HSF to discuss his journey through the roughest years of the Global War on Terrorism, and how he came through the adversity of being whole again........ I have never once celebrated this holiday. I never cared. The list of my friends names grew longer and longer but I was so upside down I couldn’t grasp the weight of it all. I kept fighting and diffusing bombs and the list grew longer but it escaped my name- not for a lack of trying.I will never know what spared me and what took others out there but it happened a lot. This is a photo of me lifting my daughter up to put a star on the very first tree I created when I was home for the last time 2012 ( I didn’t know it then) and directly after a particularly rough many months. This picture represents what all of these men gave to me. They kept me scared of dying when I didn’t care anymore. They kept me humble when I thought I knew it all. They kept me gracious for every call I made home. They kept me motivated to get out there and do it better. They shoved lessons learned in my face. They made me fight harder and more persistent. They are honestly the only reason I am still alive-the only reason I was able to lift my child up on that tree in 2012. These guys are still the only reason I’m alive. It never gets easier we just get stronger. Thanks boys. Ret. MSgt Nate McCafferty (USMC EOD)
