Helping Heroes heal through the power of their story.
Our Book is Here!
"Wounds to Wisdom: Healing Through Veteran and First Responder Narratives" is a lifeline for those of us on the front lines, battling not only the external threats faced daily but also the internal wounds that can linger long after the sirens and smoke have faded. In these pages, you'll find the stories of our fellow Protectors—Veterans and first responders—who have faced the darkness head-on and emerged stronger.
This book is a testament to the brotherhood and sisterhood that binds us together. It reminds us that no matter how isolated we may feel, suffering in silence, we are never truly alone. Through the voices of our fellow authors, we hear the echoes of our own experiences—reassurance that others have stood where we stand, navigated through the storm, and found peace on the other side.
More than just stories, "Wounds to Wisdom" is a roadmap for healing. It distinguishes between the wounds that still ache and the scars that serve as reminders of our strength. It's a beacon of hope, guiding us toward the light of shared experience and collective resilience. Join us in this journey from wounds to wisdom and discover the power of solidarity in overcoming adversity and embracing healing.

OUR MISSION
We are a community of Protectors (Active Duty, Veterans, Active and Retired First Responders, and Caring Supporters) passionate about reducing stigma and providing a place of safety in a no-judgment zone for those needing a community to process the journey of mental and emotional adversities from the job. Through storytelling and conversation, we provide a personal and unique platform to support the transition process, share inspiration, and encourage that empowering spirit to get up and continue the fight. We are a tribe that grows stronger together. Our stories deliver HOPE.
"I remember being in Kosovo & Macedonia in 1999. We were embedded into the civilian population. I was attempting to not show a threat to the population by keeping my weapon at my feet, however, always on the ready just in case.
This seems to be interpreted the same as we integrate into civilian life. It's tough for us to balance that same feeling. As we transition. This is a very vulnerable position."
