War Trauma, Ancestral Memory, and Generational Healing
Saturday, March 14, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. CST

Military Research & Writing Private Coaching
Webinars are great if you are seeking general military research knowledge, but they rarely provide the personalized answers you need for your unique military research and writing journey. Every family story, every archive search, and every project comes with its own set of challengesâand webinars simply canât address all the roadblocks youâll encounter along the way. Thatâs why so many people leave these sessions inspired, but still stuck.
Coaching changes that.
