Britt is a Gold Star Wife, after losing her husband Chris in Afghanistan in 2017, mother to Christian, former Mrs. North Carolina Universal, and Military Family Advocate. She serves on the board of directors for Camp Resilient North Carolina as Vice President, alongside Jason who is the Secretary and Treasurer. Camp Resilient provides holistic therapeutic experiences for service members, veterans, and Military family members. Located in Pinehurst, NC this camp ensures a place of safety, rest, and empathy for those who've incurred trauma surrounding military service. Britt shares her story of healing and recovery when facing multiple losses at such a young age. She is getting her PhD in Psychology with the hopes of helping more people process their pain. Jason and Britt bring a lot of insight and knowledge onto the show. We discuss the current political climate in Afghanistan, current terrorism, and what we can do to help. Jason also brings to our attention "A Voice for Two Nations" which is a blog site, active-duty U.S. Army officer and 2021 Tillman Scholar, Timothy Torres founded. Jason is the Senior Editor and VP of these articles which highlight the "common soul and deep bond between US and Afghanistan". Jason and Britt are both advocates in bringing Afghan refugees to safety and keeping the devastation overseas at the forefront of mainstream media.
