Episode 50-Overcoming PTSD And Finding Peace: The Story Of A U.S. Air Force Veteran

from The Resilient Warrior Nation · host The Resilient Warrior Nation

Check out this powerful, one-on-one episode of The Resilient Warrior Nation as Mike Morgan sits down with PJ Wright, a former U.S. Army Reserve member and 22-year retired U.S. Air Force veteran whose career spanned from F-15 aircraft maintenance to multiple Middle East deployments as an elite Air Commando and Pave Low Air Gunner. PJ shares the incredible highs of military service, the honors he received along the way, and the lesser-discussed reality of life after the uniform, where PTSD and unresolved trauma began to surface following retirement and work as a military contractor overseas. In this deeply honest conversation, PJ opens up about his search for healing, his experiences at multiple recovery centers, and how attending a psychedelic retreat with The Mission Within in 2023 became a turning point that forever changed his life. He also discusses how writing his book, My Life's Soundtrack: Memoirs of a Soul Searching for Peace, became part of his journey toward understanding and recovery. This episode offers a raw, inspiring look at resilience, post-service identity, and alternative paths to healing, making it a must-watch for veterans, first responders, and anyone seeking hope beyond conventional approaches.
