In this episode, we sit down with Mark Messina, Vice President at QRFup, a groundbreaking mobile crisis response app dedicated to supporting Service Members, Veterans, First Responders, and their Families during critical times.

Mark shares his inspiring journey from early retirement as an active duty military member to starting his own company and ultimately joining the QRFup team. He dives deep into the unique challenges faced by those who serve—like financial stress, career transitions, and emotional struggles—and how QRFup is designed by the community, for the community, to address these issues without involving law enforcement or government agencies.
