Meet Miss Freya* 🐶 - soon to join Team A-C at the end of May 🥰

*Norse goddess of love, fertility and war. Married to Odin and considered the most beautiful Norse goddess. Strong, independent and fearless!

One key outcome of writing #MindfulSoldier, over and above arming readers with tools to help build #resilience, was to give them permission to talk about difficult things and we are incredibly proud that this seems to be working. Grab your copy today: geni.us/MindfulSoldier

As we prepare to select the next Team A-C doggie 🐾 this popped up and made me smile. I’d been gone 5 months, but returned to the UK for a few days before heading back to Afghanistan for another 12 months and this was Maia’s reaction. I think her vocal welcome means she was missing her daddy!
