Episode 62: Sean and Kilian Duclay, Founders of SailAhead

This week we welcome Sean and Kilian Duclay, founders of SailAhead. Early in their lives, Sean and Kilian recognized the importance of supporting the veteran community. Shocked by the staggering statistics surrounding veteran suicide, they chose not to be bystanders in the war at home. They turned to their passion for sailing, and SailAhead was born. SailAhead's mission is three-fold; use sailing and the ocean as a therapeutic platform to foster healing in our military community, spread post-traumatic stress (PTS) and veteran suicide awareness, and to honor and remember their "Mates". Sean and Kilian carry the names of the men and women lost to veteran suicide, their "Mates", as they execute the critical goal of SailAhead, preventing veteran suicide. Whether it's taking veterans out on the water to learn to sail, or providing emergency support for local races, Sean and Kilian have quickly grown SailAhead's sphere of influence, and they aren't planning on stopping anytime soon. So join us for a conversation fit for the open water, and learn the meaning behind SailAhead's "219" with this week's episode.
