In this moving episode with Andy Steele, he dives deep into his healing journey from PTSD to healing others through EFT.
Andy opens up about the emotional weight of military experiences, the fire service, and grief, shedding light on the realities of these high-stress and often deeply traumatic professions.
We explore how Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) can support the healing process, why facing emotions is crucial for growth, and how brotherhood and connection play a vital role in recovery. From navigating mental health challenges to the transition from military to civilian life, this conversation offers insights into the non-linear nature of healing and the power of helping others.
