from Human Amplified · host Brandi Fleck

What happens after service ends? For many veterans, coming home is not the relief people imagine. It can mean losing structure, identity, purpose, and the sense of belonging that military life once provided.Marine veteran and Angels Alive founder Oscar La Madrid shares how immigrating from Peru, growing up in poverty in Georgia, and serving in the Marines shaped his mission to help veterans rebuild their lives after deployment. We examine PTSD, homelessness, masculinity, reintegration, and why so many veterans struggle in silence long after they return home.
