What happens when faith, resilience, and the challenges of military life intersect? Join us for an insightful conversation with Hannah Helena, a Navy veteran whose journey from a Roman Catholic upbringing in Deer Park, Texas, to becoming an Orthodox Christian is nothing short of inspiring. Hannah reflects on her early years, serving in the church and playing the viola in the choir, and how those experiences laid the groundwork for her enduring faith. She opens up about her rebellious teenage years, the profound struggles of losing friends to suicide, and her own battles with depression. Yet, it was during her time in the Navy that she found solace and strength in her spiritual practices, learning to navigate the demanding nature of military life while maintaining her faith.
We also tackle the critical issue of mental health in the military, particularly the stigma surrounding men expressing their emotions. Hannah offers a candid look into the superficial nature of the Navy's suicide awareness training and shares personal anecdotes that highlight both the toxic environments she sometimes faced and the invaluable leadership skills she gained. Her journey continues as she discusses becoming a catechumen, choosing Saint Helen of Constantinople as her patron saint, and the profound impact of her favorite biblical passage, the story of Lazarus, on her life. Tune in to hear how Hannah’s faith, resilience, and commitment to spreading positivity have shaped her civilian life, and how her spiritual journey continues to inspire those around her.
Thank you to our special guest Hannah Helena!
