She definitely took us for a ride and we are just honored that she shared it ALL with us so that you can have a few takeaways on what worked and what didn't. The beautiful thing about our guests is we don't really know which direction they're going to take us until we hit record.

Do we have a killer episode for you!!We want to caution you that a lot of what this episode contains is very explicit content about Ambers story as a Combat Medic and Mother. Police those little ears as always and if you're ready to rock and roll, we encourage you to listen to the entire episode.I met Amber while in Ireland this past summer while attending a music healing camp with our friends with Operation Rock The Troops.

She is small but mighty and we lover her dearly here in the states. Thank you all for your continued support around our mission and guests. They bring it every time and Ambers story is no different. We are honored to know this woman and can't wait for her to visit the great state of Texas! We hope you enjoy!!

Hold on to your Podcasting seats as we sit down with Retired U.S. Army First Sergeant, Tom Cruz.
