On today's episode, Marian sits down with combat veteran, CrossFit coach, and community leader, Eamon Coyne. They discuss Eamon's experiences serving in the military, how he discovered CrossFit, and how he uses nutrition, fitness, and holistic stress management practices to improve his mental health and overall quality of life. The episode centers veterans health, but connects to other critical topics in public health. For example, how do crises and trauma prevent us from responding to situations with empathy and humanity? How do public health systems break down in times of stress? What role does community play in physical and mental health? How can people show up, serve their communities, and remain emotionally vulnerable? Eamon's experiences, and the wisdom he has derived from them, have important things to teach us about how society should better take care of veterans, and the population at large.
