Stigma

De Oppresso Liber
To Free the Oppressed
The motto of the Green Berets.
What if the one who needs to be freed is the person everyone counts on to never break?
In war zones, boardrooms, and operating rooms, high performers fight battles out of sight. A panic attack in a meeting. The sleepless night before a life or death decision. That moment alone when disappearing feels easier than being exposed.
Lives are not lost because of a lack of strength, but from the belief that asking for help will destroy everything.
This book breaks the code of silence and shatters that belief.
Written by a retired U.S. Army Green Beret and Black Hawk pilot with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR), it shows that even the strongest can struggle. And that the struggle is not weakness.

Learn to spot hidden battles in yourself and others, recognize the warning signs early, and avoid the isolation that turns struggle into disasters.

Redefine strength and end the silence before more lives are lost.

Silence kills. Strength speaks.
