'Sheepdog' Director Steven Grayhm on PTSD, Veterans, and Post-Traumatic Growth
Actor and director Steven Grayhm joins Read Shepherd and Dana McKay to discuss his powerful new film Sheepdog, which shines a light on the hidden struggles many veterans face after returning home.
In this conversation, Grayhm opens up about the inspiration behind the film, the realities of PTSD among veterans, and the concept of post-traumatic growth — finding healing, purpose, and meaning after trauma. He explains why telling these stories authentically matters, how Sheepdog aims to spark honest conversations, and what he hopes audiences take away from the film.
Sheepdog arrives in theaters January 16, and this episode explores why its message is especially timely for veterans, families, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of trauma and resilience.
