We Got Your 6@6 with THE PEOPLE'S PATRIOT PROJECT
Join us as WE come together to see the issues and the needs of today’s HEROES, our veterans and first responders. WE will discuss the solutions and see the organizations that are boots on the ground as WE combat the silent, invisible and deadly enemies our HEROES are facing. WE are a grassroots, nonpartisan, nonprofit acting in the Mission to honor, empower and support those who have served. WE are the shock and awe in combating the silent, invisible and deadly enemies of our daily heroes, the First Responders and Veterans. Our goals come on many levels and forms as WE are raising awareness to those who do not know, WE are providing resources to those in need and WE provide the opportunities to those who are still interested in serving and/or have not had or taken the chance to serve before. WE are the beacon of hope for many to change their world through recalibration and rehabilitation. Our goals are to get our HEROES back into their families and communities. Happy Heroes create happy communities.
Episode 321 is all about making the transition out of the military a little less overwhelming — and a lot more understandable.
Terrina Russell joins us from Mayinmidlife, where she uses a unique blend of education and entertainment (“edutainment”) to help service members understand what life can look like when they leave the military. From the mountain of information that comes in that infamous transition folder to the things nobody really tells you about, Terrina works to make the process easier to understand, more relatable, and even a little more fun — crayons included! 🙂
The information provided during military transition can be overwhelming, and simply handing someone a folder full of paperwork and emails doesn’t necessarily mean they know what to do with it. Terrina is helping extend that education beyond the initial separation process and giving veterans a more approachable way to prepare for what comes next.
We also spend some time enjoying the music of Stevie Lynne, an artist who writes and sings about real, everyday life. Her music creates a feeling of connection — almost like sitting down with someone and having an honest conversation where you can simply be yourself.
🎵 Music Spotlight – Stevie Lynne
“Tobacco” – A beautiful expression of appreciation and Stevie’s first attempt at writing a country-western song.
“We Are the People” – A powerful and patriotic song inspired by the dramatic changes and division we’ve witnessed in our world. The song speaks to the way people can become villainized from both sides and reminds us that, regardless of where we stand, there is still importance in loving one another and remembering that we are all people.
“The Bottom” – Another opportunity to hear Stevie’s storytelling through music and the real-life experiences that inspire her songwriting.
From preparing for life after military service to finding connection through music, this episode reminds us that sometimes the best way forward is to make complicated things a little easier to understand — and to make sure people know they aren’t walking through it alone.
