Today we're talking to JP and he is a Marine veteran I met him on TikTok and this guy, he's got such a great point of transitioning from the military active service to civilian and it's such a great mindset, and Patrick, I don't know if you had a chance to watch any of his videos but it's just You know, you're going to have shit days, right? And, when I transitioned out, I had so many horrible days. For me,, my bridge was. I wanted to find people who were like me, who had that same story, so what I did was I created this program where I go back to my, I went to San Jose State, graduated there, and they have the VRC, the Veterans Resource Center, so there's a plethora of veterans there. I go there and talk to them about selling houses, I don't try to sell them on anything, I'm about buying houses, creating legacy, creating a budget, and then this whole financial thing started, and that's where we are today. https://financiaintelligence.blogspot.com/2024/01/jp-veteran-coach.html --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/siliconvalleyliving/message

(Lander, WY) – Mental Health Monday, the weekly segment on KOVE 1330 AM / 107.7 FM's Coffee Time hosted by Vince Tropea, returned today with guests Michael Tanner, the Executive Director for the newly formed Lander Community Veterans Resource Center, and Lorie Tanner, an administrative assistant and organizer for the group. Tanner, an Air Force Veteran who also serves as the local and district Chaplain for the American Legion, formed the Lander Community Veterans Resource Center after suffering a massive, debilitating stroke a few years ago. Despite overwhelming support from the community, Tanner saw firsthand the need for resources and access to information when he was evicted from his residence following the stroke, and knew that he didn't want other Veterans to end up in the same predicament. Following strides in his (still ongoing) recovery, Tanner then got the ball rolling on forming the Lander Community Veterans Resource Center. The main goal of the Center would be to serve as a central location dedicated to hosting a wide range of programs and services provided by organizations and government agencies, for the purpose of improving the health, welfare, well being and quality of life for veterans, military members, and their families and caregivers in the Lander community and surrounding area. The Lander Veterans Center would establish, maintain and operate a drug and alcohol free venue which would provide our military Veteran community with access to free, onsite activities, resources, programs and services offered by the Center, or through collaborative partnerships with federal, state and local agencies and organizations. The Center will eventually provide access to an office and dedicated, secure storage space to its community and agency partners, provide information and assistance in making appointments or referrals to the appropriate federal, state or local agency and/or other established community organization which is best able to address the individual situation and needs of non-Veteran members of the community. To learn more about Lander Community Veterans Resource Center, which will be recognized at the National Museum of Military Vehicles free Veterans Service Fair on May 27, check out the full Mental Health Monday interview with the Tanners below. You can also contact Michael at 307-330-6634, or by email at landerveteranscenter@gmail.com. The main goal of Mental Health Monday is to start an open dialogue about a number of mental health topics, and how folks are being affected on local, state and national levels. Guests range from psychiatrists, psychologists, school/drug/grief counselors, and any other professionals in the field, as well as testimonials from those affected by mental health issues, such as students, veterans, first responders, and many more. Be sure to check out Mental Health Monday on Coffee Time every Monday, and tune in to Coffee Time every morning at 7:00 AM on KOVE 1330 AM / 107.7 FM, or stream it live right here.

Patrick Forystek is the coordinator of the Student Veterans Resource Center. Emre Umucu is an assistant professor in the Office of Rehabilitation and Disability Studies in the Department of Counseling, Educational Psychology, and Special Education. And Matthew Ritt is an undergraduate student at MSU. He's studying building construction management. “Veterans come back to school with a lot of things that make them a little bit different than your traditional students,” says Forystek. “They typically are more likely to have families, have a service-connected disability, be a little bit older, and live off campus. They're a lot like other non-traditional students but just have their own special twist on it. The center helps connect veterans to the resources they need. MSU already provides a lot of the resources that they might need, like the Student Parent Resource Center and Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities. We just help connect them to those resources.”“I was sitting in class one day and a student who had worked at the center suggested I check it out,” says Ritt. “I had no idea it existed. I stopped by there and I could get snacks there, and I could do my printing there. If I had questions about any opportunities on campus or anything going on campus or any help I needed, I could ask Patrick or anyone else that was there.”“I'm doing a lot of research on understanding how to improve college adjustment, wellbeing, life satisfaction, and academic achievement in student veterans and veterans with disabilities,” adds Umucu. “I reached out to Patrick to see if we could collaborate and do some meaningful research to help MSU student veterans improve their academic achievement.” And what are you learning in your research so far that's helping you?“If you look at student veterans with or without disabilities, those who experience disability in an academic setting have lower levels of wellbeing and quality of life,” Umucu continues. “We also found that if we help these student veterans to have better positive emotions, better relationships with peers and faculty, or a better sense of accomplishment, they actually get better GPA's. That's meaningful because we can develop some interventions to test here at MSU and help these student veterans to increase their positive emotions, positive relationships, meaning in life, and sense of accomplishment. Then we can help them to have better academic achievements. That will also reduce dropout. When they have higher GPA's, they will be more motivated to stay in college and be more persistent in the academic settings. Then eventually they will get better jobs. My goal is to help student veterans with and without the disabilities at MSU.”“At the center, our programming and everything we do throughout the year relies heavily on donor funding,” continues Forystek. “That's where we need the most support. That's the best way you can support us. Or just reach out to our office. Sometimes we have opportunities for people in the community to get involved in other ways that aren't just funding related. And we're always looking for new and exciting partnerships and ways to get our veterans engaged on campus and in the community.”“Say hi to a veteran you see and ask how it's going. Veterans and younger students have a lot they can share with each other,” says Ritt “There are so many veterans who have been in stressful environments that they know how to get through. When students have exams and they're stressed out, reach out to a veteran in your class and ask how they deal with stress. I've asked younger students for help when I've had problems with something like Google docs and new technology. But I also have had other students say ‘Hey, I'm trying to get through my homework, but I'm having trouble balancing all this.' I've tried to help.”“We've been preparing some programming for Veterans Day, and I discovered some nice data points I want to share,” says Forystek. “The graduation rate for veterans nationally is about 11 percent. There are some issues with that data; it's probably a little bit higher than that if we're being honest. But MSU comes in well over 70 percent with our student veterans. It's been like that for a while. Our student veterans come back, and they do a really great job. They're phenomenal students. And most of them are first generation college students doing this for the first time.”MSU Today airs Sunday mornings at 9:00 on WKAR News/Talk and streams at WKAR.org.

I don’t know about the colleges and universities you’re familiar with, but the U.S. military has a pretty visible presence on my campus—through the ROTC, a newly remodeled Veterans Resource Center, and the student veterans themselves who enroll in my classes each semester. So I was immediately intrigued when I heard about the book Grateful Nation: Student Veterans and the Rise of the Military-Friendly Campus (Duke University Press, 2017) by Ellen Moore. In Grateful Nation, Moore uses interviews and observations to document the experiences of student veterans, the challenges they face re-integrating into academic life, strategies they use to navigate that experience, and the nature of the resources available to them along the way. Moore considers an interesting paradox—that despite the presence of overtly military-friendly programs and practices on most US campuses today, there is still a perception, stemming from the Vietnam War era, that college campuses are anti-military and anti-veteran spaces; this misperception serves to silence or censor discussions of contemporary military conflicts on campus, even among veterans themselves. If you find this all as interesting as I do, you’ll want to listen to my upcoming interview with Dr. Ellen Moore about her book. Carrie Lane is a Professor of American Studies at California State University, Fullerton and author of A Company of One: Insecurity, Independence, and the New World of White-Collar Unemployment (Cornell University Press, 2011). Her research concerns the changing nature of work in the contemporary U.S. She is currently writing a book on the professional organizing industry.

Since that time Robert has teamed up with Erin Holmes and created I Journey. I Journey started from a realization that Holistic Wellness was desperately needed in the military veteran community. With so many occurrences of overly medicated, anxious, injured, depressed, and suicidal veterans something seriously had to be done. Erin Holmes, co-founder of I Journey created an 8 wk wellness program she formed from rehabilitating herself from traumatic bodily injuries along with PTS trauma. She is a 300hr certified yoga instructor with emphasis on spinal rehabilitation. Over the last two years, Erin has graduated over 70 vets and counting with great program success. In the 2-month program vets of all ages learn holistic forms of healing such as yoga, meditation, nutrition, sound healing, essential oils, at home healing gadgets for pain and so much more! Erin and Robert soon realized the Wellness needed to continue on a larger scale, in a safe space, and at no cost for the veteran graduates....thus our non-profit I Journey was born. Erin teamed up with Robert Caudill, a medically retired Sergeant in the Marine Corps who's an avid sound healer, teaching meditation over medication, along with an amazing group of teachers and supporters to turn this dream into reality. Robert served close to 9 years in the Marines with several tours overseas and medically retired from service as a Sergeant from the Wounded Warriors Battalion-West. I Journey is currently starting classes for the continuation program at the Veterans Resource Center of North County (VANC) in Oceanside, Ca in Summer 2017. At the moment, these services are for graduates of the 8 week program only. If you are a vet or know someone who's interested in this program, please contact Pam in the Oceanside VA Mental Health Dept. at (760)-643-2067 ask for Pam and say "Yoga!"...she'll know what to do. I Journey will be holding periodic community fundraisers where everyone can enjoy a donation based sound healing, gentle yoga, meditation, fresh foods, and check out where all the magic happens. Thank you to all who have supported this venture.
