Trigger warning: We're diving into the heavy stuff related to mental health—stats, struggles, the works. If it hits too close to home, skip it and come back next week. I will not be offended. It's 2025, and Gen X (born ‘65–‘79, now 45–60) is wrestling a quiet crisis—too many of us are taking our own lives. Gen X men at a rate of 27–29 per 100,000, women at 7–8, both up since 2002. In this episode we unpack why—financial struggles, loneliness, physical & mental health issues—and how to fight back. I will share my own experiences and what I've learned and the steps I've taken. Resources:  988 Crisis Line (call/text)  NAMI.org (support groups)  SAMHSA.gov (local help)  Veterans Crisis Line (988, press 1)  Text HOME to 741741

Award-winning filmmaker Marty Stalker shares his deeply personal journey of serving as a Section Commander in the British Royal Marine Commandos during operational theaters of war in Iraq and Afganistan and his struggles after returning home. When conventional treatments were insufficient to alleviate the post-traumatic stress that plagued him, Marty found relief via a variety of “plant medicines.” In this episode, Marty describes his experiences and speaks candidly about the heavy substance use, suicidality, and other mental health issues that many veterans struggle with after returning home from tours of duty.For more on Marty Stalker, visit: https://martystalker.com/On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MartyStalkerIf you live in the US and are a veteran or loved one struggling with mental health challenges, below are potential resources for support:Veterans Crisis Line: https://www.veteranscrisisline.net/get-help-now/chat/US Dept. of Veterans Affairs: https://mentalhealth.va.gov/NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) Resources for Veterans and Active Duty Service Members and the Families: https://www.nami.org/your-journey/veterans-active-duty/

Megan Lowry, Marine Corps Veteran, Veteran Wellness Specialist, and citizen of the Muscogee Nation is our guest today on the Hoffman Podcast. Megan's story is one of hope. She held 'a kernel of hope' when she came to the Hoffman Process in 2015. As a Native American, Megan wasn't sure how she would navigate the week of the Process. She shares, "Being Native, there's things that we do to grieve and things that we never show and never talk about just, culturally, and so just bringing all of that to the Hoffman process, it was intimidating." Megan served our country in the Marine Corps and then in the Secret Service for President, George W. Bush and First Lady, Barbara Bush. The military was where Megan gained so much, yet it was a place that also caused her great harm. She grew and learned to "adapt and overcome," but she suffered both sexual and emotional abuse during those years. After leaving the service, she found herself having a difficult time.

Now a PhD student, Megan continues to heal her significant PTSD while bringing her many skills and wisdom to serve as the commander of the Muscogee Creek Nation women's honor guard and support Veterans in finding healing and well-being. For her dissertation, Megan intends to highlight the need for a blend of healing modalities, such as talk and recreational therapies, and ties to the community to give you purpose.
