344 – Rugged Warrior Healing Coalition Retreat – Part 5 – Gina Alderman

344 – Rugged Warrior Healing Coalition Retreat – Part 5 – Gina Alderman

Gina Alderman has come on Oscar Mike Radio as an author. She wrote in Veterans Unchained Anthology and put together Veterans Unchained 2.0.

This time she is talking with me about her Rugged Warrior Healing Coalition Retreat. Gina talked about how the retreat went from an idea to reality. One of the interesting parts of the conversation is how other female Veterans came together to work with her as co-facilitators in their area of expertise. Instead of listening to class lectures, female Veterans will leave the retreat with something that they have made and experienced. It is Gina’s hope that these experiences will allow other female Veterans to connect and grow. The Crystal Blue Lagoon is a perfect setting for these female Veterans to come together and renew themselves emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

On behalf of Gina Alderman, and the co-facilitators who are all Veterans, we would like to extend our sincerest thanks to Lynn who provided Crystal Blue Lagoon Bed and Breakfast as the site for the retreat.

Thank you, Gina, for talking with me and your support and mentorship.

198 – Sevins Grace Creations

I watched a show with Coach Danielle Rocco (www.devotedtoasoldier) and Sarah Fausett of Sevins Grace Creations. It is always good to learn about Veterans who are working at growing their own business. Sarah served in the U.S. Navy.

After serving, Sarah used her G.I. Bill to get get her degree and masters. However, she got into making custom cups that started taking off. She made one for me and I wanted to talk to Sarah about what it takes to start a business. This is where the conversation got interesting. Sarah said it is up to us Veterans to be proactive in our medical care, education and professional development. Being proactive will get us further than complaining about what we can or can’t do about a situation. This is a message that we in the Veteran Community need to listen to as we go through our lives after we serve.

Sevins Grace is a place where you can get some unique custom gifts for yourself or someone else. I love my cup and it keeps my iced coffee cold for hours.

Check out the links below and get on the order list for Christmas!

Thank you Sarah for coming on Oscar Mike Radio! Sevins Grace on
