Paul McLaughlin, a Marine Corps Veteran, Husband, and Father to 4, joins me on this episode to share his story of tranistion from military to civilian life. He had to find an outlet to fill social voids and build community that was lost when he left the Marine Corps.
Paul shares how he learned the value of community when he felt that loss after the built-in community the military life provides. He turned to hunting as a way to reconnect with himself, his friends, and family.
It's time to recognize that men have social needs too!
Listen in and see how Paul's journey in the civilian life led to new relationships with community, food, nature, and his wife!
