Transcript from ‘The Parachute Regiment & Plant Medicine’ podcast

Keith – Of course we all have our things that inform us as adults. I can’t then claim that as trauma for me. Certainly not big T trauma if we’re using that terminology. But relationships caused me issues. My earliest one, she was the mother of my eldest son. That relationship broke down and that was a catalyst for me joining the parachute regiment. It was a perfect storm of events because that relationship broke down, then 9/11 happened. I always wanted to join the military anyway, but I felt while I was certainly traumatised by that relationship, there was a freedom from it as well.
