About this listen
This is the story of a woman who witnessed the worst in the War in Afghanistan, was confronted by demons of post-traumatic stress, and fought for her life to become stronger than ever.
Fresh out of high school, Kelsi Sheren, a diminutive nineteen-year-old woman, sought to join the military to help liberate those oppressed by the Taliban in Afghanistan. While she was often the smallest person in basic training, she proved she had the biggest heart and often the most energy. She made it to Afghanistan and joined a British military unit for house-to-house insurgent patrol. What she saw there was unimaginable death and destruction—including the killing of a brother-in-arms. Devastated, Kelsi was sent home to get her head straight, but even therapy and medication couldn't clear her mind—or let her sleep. When two others who served with her later took their own lives, she feared that was the only way out. Clinging to life and the love of her husband and child, she knew she wasn't ready to give in. Finding respite in a jewelry business that utilized spent shell casings, and with the help of innovative grief therapy, Kelsi not only survived but continues to thrive—and works tirelessly to spread the word and help others.

Exceptional!
Great hearing the life story of someone who went through so much and a fellow Canuck to boot! Her experience with PTSD and TBI (which wasn't mentioned in the book) struck a chord with me as I also have that but not due to war. Keep fighting the good war Kelsie! There are a lot of people that need to know they aren't alone with the battle in their heads.

Incredible!
One of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to thank you Kelsi for sharing the real and raw experience of a Canadian Vet, what PTSD is like and how little support there is for our Vets. This is a must listen to book!!

Courage
As someone who suffers from PTSD plus, I loved the book, it was so very triggering (as forewarned) and took a while for me to finish, but I finished it. This no doubt to a lot of courage to narrate. I think you did great. Love following your Podcast. Thank you for all you've done, and continually do... 🇨🇦
