The Coolest People in the World
Jennifer
This week’s coolest person in the world is U.S. Navy Veteran Jennifer Alvarado. This interview follows a panel conversation held in the U.S. Capitol Building at which Jennifer participated in a ground-breaking conversation about female veterans and their mental health.
Led by the D.A.V. (Disabled American Veterans), the report “Women Veterans: The Journey to Mental Wellness” tells the story of several individuals and their experiences as a woman in the military. The report presents a solution-oriented conversation about the overall wellness of women who have served and a push for gender-tailored care during and after their transition back into a civilian lifestyle.
In her first post-panel interview, Jennifer shares more of her story, her journey as a sound healer, and her hope for the future of mental health care for United States Vets.
