Description

This conversation with Kent Solheim, Founder and Program Development Lead for Gold Star Teen Adventures explains the mission of this incredible non-profit. We talk about their programs and goals in giving Gold Star Teens a chance to focus on Healing, Opportunity and Leadership. Kent shares his personal story of his time in service, being critically wounded in 2007, how this gave him a different perspective on life and his desire to give back to the children and families who have lost a loved one. What he learned from the time he left the battlefield  and while receiving care at Walter Reed helped formulate the idea of Gold Star Teen Adventures.  Kent has remained on active duty as a Green Beret, you won't want to miss this episode!  Resources: Gold Star Teen Adventures - www.gstadventures.orgBook: The Long Walk by Slavomir Rawicz Support the show (http://weblink.donorperfect.com/BehindTheWarrior)
