My guest this week is Michael O’Dell.
Michael O’Dell is the Warriors Heart Command Center Executive Director and Former US Marines Corps CPL.
At the age of 19, Michael left his family and the hill country behind to become a United States Marine. During his service to our country Michael was stationed in Hawaii and attached to 3rd battalion 3rd Marine AKA Americas Battalion. His unit quickly deployed and continuously rotated in and out of theater.
Michael was a part of and involved with multiple missions which were mostly executed at night training the Iraqi Army, as well as maintaining a high level of readiness in the battalion’s motor pool. CPL O’Dell was recognized for promotion and multiple awards for his performance and dedication to the corps and was honorably discharged from service in November of 2010.
Shortly after Michael’s return home to the Texas hill country, the struggle with addiction and PTSD began to take control of his life. As a Marine, Michael would refuse to admit to his problems. Michael continued to suffer from his addiction until it landed him in prison.
Michael has been sober since March 2016 and has dedicated himself to helping the warrior class make the crucial decision to choose life and finally return home.
Listen. Learn. Enjoy!
If you are a veteran or current serviceperson struggling with addiction and/or PTSD, please reach out to the 24-hour Warrior’s Heart hotline at (866-955-4035). All calls are answered by fellow warriors.
