Keynote Description:
Members of the Military and elite athletes share a similar pride and passion for the uniform they wear. It often defines who they are. Unfortunately, for most, there has been little to no time to focus on what comes after their service or sport. Unforeseen setbacks like injury or early retirement could bring one question into focus much sooner than they ever expected... "Who am I outside of the uniform?"
For more than 50% of them, the answer is the same: loss of identity, uncertainty and depression.
This inspiring talk pulls from my 15 years of research in injury recovery, mental health, and redefining one's purpose during a major life transition. Navigating this next season can be dark and depressing or it can be hopeful and inspiring. By utilizing lessons learned from my own suicide-to-success story, I have built a framework that will allow you to thrive in the next phase of life because your story does not end when the uniform comes off.
"Zack's story was the inspiration that I needed to keep fighting against my PTSD. His message has completely changed my life and helped me find my next step in healing."Jennifer Andrade - United States Air Force Veteran
