In this #1 Optimal Response Initiative – a Behind the Service Podcast, Dr. Kristina Seymour introduces the major concepts of her ORI Workbooks (Military & Civilian Versions) that she will be taking listeners through over the next many weeks. 

Dr. Seymour is excited to be joining us every Friday for thriving training. She will be pulling content from her ORI Workbook(s), providing practical tools for everyday application, and integrating current research to optimize all areas of health – physical, cognitive, emotional, spiritual, and social. She shares how as an USAF Veteran married to a Ranger, a mom of two grown children and a warrior grandmom of two – she got out of the AF in 1995 and I had a hard time figuring out how to exist in everyday life. She shares that the word “cope” was a foreign concept. She “just sucked it up and pressed on and did what she needed to do.”  

Dr. Seymour spent 20+ years working and going to school and is now a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in recovery from PTSD & Substance Use – however, the Optimal Response Initiative is also full of her own real life examples of doing things the hard way for a few decades until she came up with some of her own coping tools  - She wrote the ORI workbook in order to offer you some tangible hope wherever you are. She is passionate about reaching her brothers and sisters in arms (and their families) empowering you to stay alert, stay alive AND THRIVE!
