In Part 2 of my interview with Sean O'Loughlin, Sean answers the 8 transition questions and I discuss my key takeaways from Sean's story; the application of military learned resilience skills to the identity shift of becoming a civilian once more, the power of mindfulness practices in dealing with the emotional stressors and distractions of life, and the Sean's affinity for training mentoring and teamwork which were instrumental in his transition from infantry soldier to university student peer mentor, and then on to emergency medicine training provider with Emergency Australia.
For more on mindfulness I recommend CD and MP3 recordings from Jon Kabat Zinn (also available on YouTube) https://www.betterlisten.com/pages/jonkabatzinnseries123
Or neuroscientist Sam Harris' app Waking Up for iOS or Android https://wakingup.com
