Welcome!

The two guests are Jae Day and Heather Vanderveer, Cpl (Ret’d)

Jae Day:

Jae Day is a Canadian veteran, mother of four, advocate, maternal health professional, and founder of The Baby Days & Co. She served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 17 years, beginning her military career as a teenager and serving in a variety of roles throughout her career. Following her transition from military service, Jae has continued to use her experiences to advocate for veterans, women, children, and military families.

A survivor of military sexual trauma, Jae speaks openly about the realities of life after service, the complexities of transition, and the importance of creating spaces where veterans can be seen as whole people, not simply defined by what happened to them or by the uniform they once wore. Her advocacy has included work surrounding military sexual trauma, gender-based violence, survivor support, restorative and transformative justice, and the experiences of women veterans.

Outside of veteran advocacy, Jae is the founder of The Baby Days & Co., where she supports families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenthood with a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive approach. She is also a speaker, peer supporter, educator, and passionate advocate for improving maternal and family support.

At the centre of everything she does is motherhood. As a mother of four and military spouse, Jae often speaks about the intersection of service, family, identity, healing, leadership, and starting over after the military.

Her philosophy is simple: lead with motherhood, lead with compassion, and leave the door open for the people coming behind you.

Heather Vanderveer, Cpl (Ret’d):

Co-Founder & Executive Director, Alberta Recoil Inc. | Canadian Armed Forces Veteran | Peer Supporter | Facilitator | Advocate

Heather Vanderveer, Cpl (Ret’d), is a Canadian Armed Forces Veteran, former Emergency First Responder, peer supporter, facilitator, advocate, and Co-Founder and Executive Director of Alberta Recoil Inc.

Heather began her military service in 1989 with 14 Service Battalion before transferring to 33 Field Engineer Squadron in Calgary, serving continuously on full-time Reserve contracts and attaining the substantive rank of Corporal. Following her military service, she continued serving the uniformed community as an Emergency First Responder with a rural fire department.

In 2020, Heather co-founded Alberta Recoil Inc. with MCpl (Ret’d) John Senior. The organization provides peer support, education, advocacy, and training for serving and retired members of the Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, first responders, survivors of Military and Service Sexual Trauma, and their families.

Drawing on her military and first responder backgrounds, lived experience, and years of peer-support work, Heather has become a strong advocate for survivor autonomy, trauma-informed support, and meaningful institutional change. Her work has included engagement with Veterans Affairs Canada, the Department of National Defense, military leadership, government officials, Members of Parliament, and other organizations across the Veteran and uniformed communities.

Heather has also testified before parliamentary committees, bringing both lived experience and front-line peer-support perspectives to national discussions surrounding military justice, sexual misconduct, survivor choice, and institutional accountability.

At the center of Heather’s work is a simple principle: people who serve, those who have served, survivors, and their families deserve knowledgeable, credible, and compassionate support and a meaningful voice in the systems intended to support them.

👤 Brandon Kett
Podcast Biography
Canadian Afghanistan Veteran | Veterans’ Advocate | Mefloquine Awareness Advocate | Martial Artist

Brandon Kett is a Canadian Army Afghanistan veteran, veterans’ advocate, martial artist, and passionate supporter of veterans’ mental health and su***de prevention.

His advocacy journey began in 2014 when he started researching the potential long-term effects of mefloquine exposure after experiencing his own challenges while serving. In 2016, Brandon founded Canadian Mefloquine/Lariam Veteran Support, creating a community where veterans and their families could find information, connection, and support.

Brandon is committed to raising awareness, encouraging research, and ensuring veterans are listened to and supported when seeking answers about their experiences.

Martial arts has also played a major role in Brandon’s life. Beginning Judo in 1996 and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in 2006, he earned his BJJ Brown Belt in 2022 and continues working towards his Black Belt. For Brandon, martial arts represents discipline, resilience, humility, confidence, and the ability to remain composed under pressure.

👤 Philip Scott Brooks,
Phillip is a former Royal Canadian Air Force Officer, Navigator, and Intelligence Officer.

After my medical release, I went on to become a lawyer, a senior banking executive, and a Veterans’ Advocate. My life was profoundly altered by mefloquine!

I was seriously injured during Gulf War deployment training in 1991 and I experienced multiple concussions and injuries, poisoning and tropical diseases during my operational flying career.

In 1996, while in law school, I was selected for one final mission as the Air Liaison for an early JTF-2 Special Operations mission to Africa and was ordered to take mefloquine. Following the cancellation of Operation CROCODILE, I suffered a severe neurological collapse that knocked him out of law school and ultimately contributed to the end of both my military career and my marriage.

In 1998 I was medically released in a state of confusion, aphasia and partial amnesia with no injury recognition nor support. What followed was not a single illness and recovery, but a decades-long cycle of rebuilding my l,ife only to suffer further unexplained neurological relapses.

I subsequently founded and ran my own international capital-markets advisory firm, yet each remarkable professional recovery was eventually interrupted by further neurological deterioration—years before I understood that my recurring symptoms were consistent with chronic quinoline neurotoxicity.

Eighteen years after my medical release, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) finally granted limited recognition of my service-related disabilities in 2016, beginning another difficult chapter of my life.

VAC however, terminated my income support in 2017 and I endured three years of profound disability and near homelessness. My benefits were reinstated arbitrarily during the pandemic—only to be terminated again in 2023.

🇬🇧 LANCE CORPORAL KYLIE ELIZABETH WATSON MC

During a patrol in Afghanistan, an Afghan soldier was badly wounded and lying exposed to enemy fire.

Kylie Watson, a Royal Army Medical Corps battlefield medic, ran approximately 100 metres across open ground to reach him, despite the danger.

She treated his serious injuries and helped save his life.

On another patrol, she again ran into danger to reach a wounded soldier and attempted to resuscitate him for around 20 minutes. Sadly, he could not be saved.

Kylie’s courage and determination earned her the Military Cross in 2011.

When asked about her actions, she simply said:

“What I did is what every other combat medic would have done.”

She saw someone wounded.
She was the medic. So she went.
