Listen now
Description
Jason Kander is a lawyer, politician, New York Times best selling author and an Operation Enduring Freedom Veteran but now as he sits and tries to help his new passion expand into new territory he’s finally at peace and in the right position. He served as the Secretary of State of Missouri and while running for office as mayor of Kansas City received helped for PTSD and Depression. It was at this time his entire life changed. He became an advocate for mental health and stepped away from the spotlight. While away he linked up with an organization rightly titled Veterans Community Project. Veterans Community Project is dedicated to supporting every man and woman who took the oath for our country. We are determined to make a difference in the lives of homeless Veterans, a task accomplished by the community for the community per their website. I’ve had the honor of meeting several of the founders and their great guys. On this episode we sit down with Jason and talk about his new role with expanding into new territory with VCP and how his past has shaped and formed his thought process now while highlighting exactly what he went through with PTSD and Depression. It’s a lighthearted conversation but on a very serious topic that I believe all three of us speaking on this episode believe passionately in. Hope you enjoy it! Cheers!
