In Episode 7 of The Jim Gale show, guest Matt Guedes brings awareness, compassion and great hope to the traumas our veterans and first responders, gold stars and their families face.

These “American heroes” get great support through the 2,300-acre Camp Freedom in Pennsylvania, where Matt works as executive director, paying it forward to bring the healing powers of the outdoors to those who are disabled or challenged by their traumas.

Free to all, the camp offers fishing, hunting, hiking, walking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing activities–or, as he says: “Anything outdoors we do it, and we do it with a purpose.”

Co-hosts Jim Gale and Matthew Britt, moved by Matt’s insights on the impact of trauma to our 4-million plus disabled veterans, and untold numbers of first responders, offer insights and solutions, including the possibilities of collaborating to start a Freedom Farm Academy onsite.

“It’s a perfect alignment in every way–to teach people how to be free, and grow food in the midst of a food chain disaster, is a good business to be in,” Jim shares.

Isolation is the number one issue facing those disabled by trauma, according to Matt Guedes.
