In this powerful and honest conversation, Chris opens up about the psychological toll of service, his battle with PTSD, and the long road to recovery. Now living in Finland, he uses his experiences to educate students about trauma, resilience, and the true human cost of war, ensuring future generations understand the realities behind the headlines. This is a raw and thought-provoking discussion about service, sacrifice, survival, and finding purpose after conflict.
