Welcome to the Trauma Therbors Podcast.

My name is Guy McPherson.

I interview incredible people who've dedicated their lives to helping those who've been impacted by trauma.

A big thank you to our sponsors and our guests

who are supporting this show. Okay. So five, four, three, two, and one. Our folks, welcome back

to the podcast. Very excited. Have to make this today, Angie Peacock. Angie, welcome. Thank you so much for having me.

Awesome. So Angie is a U.S. Army veteran and trauma-informed coach whose work is shaped by

firsthand experience with psychiatric injury and recovery. After serving seven years as a signal

specialist, including a deployment to Iraq, she was medically discharged due to severe illness and PTSD and became dangerously overmedicated.

Her withdrawal and recovery journey was documented in the film Medicating Normal,

which she later led a nationwide grassroots outreach effort engaging more than 180 audiences.

Today she supports individuals navigating medication withdrawal, trauma related to

overmedication, working with those harmed by the very system they turn to for help and advocating

for meaningful change in mental health care. All right, Angie, just a little bit about you.
