What this episode covers
In this milestone episode, I celebrate being officially monetized and hitting 30K subscribers, then pivot into a raw, honest solo conversation about the anxiety a lot of us felt after Dominican Independence Day weekend—waking up to nonstop headlines about Iran and the fear of another war. From a veteran perspective, I talk through why I’m conflicted, how doomscrolling messes with our minds, and why we can’t lose focus on what’s happening to everyday people—especially around healthcare and Medicaid.
