Show Notes
This week's host, Nicki Bennett, is joined by Eric Jones to chat the beautiful healing power of spending some time on the water. Eric is a 9/11 first responder who received the Medal of Valor from the Department of Defense for his heroic efforts at the Pentagon and Ground Zero. In 2019, Eric founded Sea Valor, a nonprofit that uses sailing to help improve quality of life for those with PTSD, underprivileged youth, and local heroes. Hear why sailing is therapeutic, brings people together, the impact it has on depression and stress, why there's no shame in experiencing trauma, and success stories from Sea Valor.
