In this episode of Recovered Life, I’m happy to be joined by Danny Mayberry, a United States Navy veteran with multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. His long-term sobriety, compassion and resilience make him a wonderful asset to the veteran mental health advocacy space. He’s the host of the 1 Mile 1 Veteran podcast. Together with his wife Leighanne, he produces social media content that encourages
Our conversation is a beautiful example of what it can look like to hold space for one another’s healing. Both Danny and I shared openly and vulnerably about our experiences fighting addiction & depression while in the military, childhood traumas that followed us into our service, and how we maintain sobriety and protect our emotional health today.
As per usual here on Recovered Life, I also call into question the conventional “medication only” approach. I really appreciated Danny’s insights not only as a former Navy Corpsman, but someone who honors the power of nature and the human body’s self healing capacity.
