In this episode of “Oscar Mike Radio,” I talk with Marie Henriksen, a former U.S. Army combat medic. Marie shares her journey through military service, Trauma, addiction, and recovery, highlighting her nearly nine years of sobriety.
She discusses how creativity, through poetry, photography, and podcasting, became central to her healing. Marie emphasizes the importance of community, faith, and sharing one’s story to inspire others.
The episode is a candid, hopeful conversation about resilience, the power of vulnerability, and the value of helpingothers heal out loud.
