Kathleen Mills is an Executive Coach and a Certified Yoga Teacher, with yoga and trauma training that includes Yoga Nidra for veterans. She also has a master's degree in leadership and several fitness and personal training certifications. A proud mother to two grown children, she lives in Cochrane, Alberta, with her spouse, Darryl, and her dog, Zeus. Chasing Freedom is her first book, but Kathleen has had her poetry published in several sources. She has also included some of her poems in this book. She hopes that sharing her story will help start a conversation about the need for more inclusivity of military families and how combat injuries don't just happen on the battlefield.
