“It's just that when we take our problems on ourselves, and we don't seek a different point of view or a different reference point, they can absolutely become all-consuming because we only have the benefit of our own experiences. And we only have the benefits of our own limited knowledge, education and understanding. But when you get the benefit of being able to look at a particular problem, from the perspective of the person that you might have a problem with or the issue that you might have.”

Kevin Humphrey’s Bio

Kevin served in the Army for 20 years flying Black Hawk and Chinook helicopters. He deployed on numerous overseas operations and towards the peak of his career, contemplated suicide and suffered a breakdown due to PTSD, anxiety, and depression; but it wasn’t the warzone that tore him apart.

He not only got back on his feet, but also back in the air again, spending the next 10 years as a Search and Rescue helicopter pilot, flight instructor and examiner. Today, his personal mission is to lift humanity by inspiring people to have their own courageous and compassionate conversations.

He is the Mental Health Ambassador for AIRBUS Australia Pacific, a Community Ambassador for Mates4Mates and the creator of COR INFINITUS which gives dignity and respect to the families of those who’ve served our nation and were overwhelmed by their battle within.
