episode Too Many Children Of Veterans Fight Battles They Never Signed Up For cover

Beskrivelse

A powerful and emotional interview with the daughter of a deceased veteran exposed to Agent Orange — and the lifelong health struggles she now faces because of it. Her father served his country. But decades later, the damage didn't stop with him. In this episode, my guest Jane and I, dive into the generational effects of Agent Orange, the healthcare battles families face, and the difficult reality many children and grandchildren of veterans are living through without support or recognition from the VA system. This conversation is bigger than one family. It raises questions about accountability, healthcare, sacrifice, and what happens when the consequences of war are passed down to the next generation. Who takes responsibility when service impacts generations? ______________________________ JOIN THE FROM DIRT WE GROW FAMILY - SUBSCRIBE/FOLLOW NOW! ______________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

Questions about politics. Questions about corruption. Questions about healthcare. Questions about why so many Americans feel unheard. After countless conversations with candidates, veterans, activists, and everyday people, I still don't have every answer. But I found something I wasn't expecting. In this episode, I share the biggest lessons, hardest truths, and unexpected insights from the journey so far. The conversation is just getting started. ____________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.
