A compassionate, practical guidebook for veterans transitioning from active duty to civilian life and for the loved ones supporting their journey.
"Challenging yet reassuring....a key addition to every veteran's packing list ." --Stan McChrystal, General, US Army (Ret) and Co-Founder and CEO, McChrystal Group

Some important statistics:
- There are over 22 million veterans alive today
- Each year, more than 200,000 new veterans transition out of active duty.
- Approximately 22 veterans commit suicide a day, and even more are living with PTSD, traumatic brain injury (TBI), struggling with substance abuse, homelessness, and experience many, many other difficulties.

It's clear that we have not honored the promise we make to veterans: that we as a country will help them after they've served and sacrificed. And while there are many books written by and for veterans, only a small selection of those address the transition to civilian life, and none are a truly complete reference for stepping out of service and back into normal life. Warrior to Civilian covers a range of topics, from the practical-finding a job, reintegrating into family life-to the more challenging topics, like dealing with loss, and finding new purpose in life. This well-curated resource incorporates stories, insights, and observations from veterans and their partners; evidence-based advice from health professionals and experts who work closely with veterans; and inspiration taken from heavyweights like Jon Kabbat-Zinn and Tony Robbins. The authors take care to address the unique challenges faced by veterans of color, and those in the LGBTQ+ communities.

With support from some of our country's most recognizable military members, authors Rob Sarver, a retired SEAL, and Alex Gendizer, combine their voices and their experiences in and out of the military in a unique way that will make this resource shine. Scaffolded by the hero's journey, in which the hero experiences a series of transformative events, they reveal that within the loss that many veterans have suffered while serving and suffer in the transition, there is great opportunity for healing.
