Leave the light on with Tammy Flake

health, fitness, mental, society, culture · EN-US

Every 65 minutes, a veteran dies by suicide in America. This is Keep the Light On. Hosted by Tammy Flake — Iraq War veteran, Heroes Haven peer counselor, and candidate for VFW National Commander in Chief — this is a podcast about the unseen wars. The ones fought inside, in silence, long after the uniform comes off. Tammy has been to the edge herself. She knows what it feels like when the weight wins. And she knows what it feels like when someone shows up just in time. Each episode she brings the honesty most shows avoid: real stories, hard conversations, and the tools that actually save lives. For veterans who won’t call a hotline. For military families who don’t know what to say. For anyone who loves someone they can’t reach. If you only hear one thing today, hear this: you are worth being here.
