Скачать или смотреть From Survival to Redemption Air Force Veteran Patrick Fitz Fitzhugh on Faith Mindset & Mental Health

In this raw and powerful episode of the JMach Podcast, host Joshua “JMach” Mach sits down with U.S. Air Force Veteran Patrick “Fitz” Fitzhugh — a former SERE Specialist (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape), West Valley Maverick, and Site Director at USAA — to dive deep into life, service, faith, and redemption.

Patrick shares his story growing up in West Phoenix, navigating family struggles, and the crossroads he faced with alcohol and trauma. He opens up about the breaking point that led to suicidal thoughts — and the spiritual awakening that changed everything. Through that journey, Patrick rebuilt his life around faith, family, and a mission to serve others.

This conversation is about more than just survival. It’s about:
✅ Turning pain into purpose
✅ Moving from a victim mindset to a survivor mindset to a thriving mindset
✅ Choosing family and sacrificial love over ego and pride
✅ The importance of community, mentorship, and faith for Veterans and First Responders
✅ Why running into the storm (like the water buffalo) is the fastest way to healing

If you’ve ever faced darkness, trauma, or the feeling of being stuck, Patrick’s story is living proof that redemption is real — and that you are not alone.
