Welcome to Pain to Power Podcast.

In this episode, I am joined by Lissa Figgins.

While she's a Time Management Coach, Lissa's strength shines through in her role as a Military Wife Her compassion and vulnerability to support others with healthy boundaries will inspire all of us even if we are not connected to military. I was saddened to hear the dark depths of her husband's PTSD and then I was lifted by her loving support of others who are suffering. 

In this episode Lissa shares her family's passion, to help support others who are affected by PTSD, especially veterans and their families.  

When you are fighting an unseen battle, you can’t see the enemy… Lissa Figgins is wife to a US Army Veteran and mom to 2 sons on Active Duty. 

Over 20 years and multiple deployments, she shouldered her part of the mission on the homefront caring for 3 kids and a household for up to a year at a time. But the hardest battle of all was when war came home. At first he said he was not affected by what he had seen, but soon Lissa realized he was not ok. 

His PTSD surfaced, affecting not only her husband, but their relationship…and deeply wounding Lissa as well. Through the support of family & friends, professionals and the military community, Lissa and her husband found healing from this unseen wound. 

Now they partner together to provide support, programs and hope for other veterans and their families. Her current mission is supporting her husband and 3 other Veterans who will be rowing 3,000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean in 2023 to raise awareness and support for veteran mental wellness and suicide prevention. This battle is worth the fight.
