🎙️ Season 5, Episode 3 – “Mentorship, Healing & the Warrior Sisterhood”

In this moving episode recorded live at the Heartland Retreat Center, hosts Mike Kenny and Matt Hastings sit down with Nicole and Kim, two graduates-turned-mentors from Warriors’ Ascent’s all-female Cohort 54. Now back to guide others through the program, they share how their journeys through trauma, transformation, and self-discovery have reshaped their lives—and the lives of those around them.

Together, they explore what makes Warriors’ Ascent unique: rest without shame, safe spaces for vulnerability, breathing techniques for anxiety, and a mission-driven identity that empowers veterans and first responders to heal and thrive. They also unpack the power of peer mentorship and the lasting impact of building a tribe where women can be seen, heard, and supported.

From surviving suicide loss and childhood trauma to rediscovering purpose and calm, this episode is a call to action for anyone questioning whether healing is possible. It is.
