In this episode of "Your Story Doesn't End Here," host Rachel discusses the concept of reintegration and its relation to mental health. She shares her initial struggle in understanding why reintegration and mental health are not directly linked, as she was accustomed to focusing on the reactive side of mental health. Rachel explores the idea of being proactive in addressing mental health issues and the challenges faced by military personnel who often bring trauma from their past experiences. She emphasizes the importance of raising awareness and providing solutions to mental health issues within DOD organizations. Rachel also provides an update on her community initiatives and shares her personal experiences with seasonal depression in Washington state.
