Shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, doxy.me CEO Brandon M. Welch decided to visit his Ukrainian team in Lviv. Along the way he encountered an enthusiastic Brit, loads of car troubles, and the resiliency of people we call heroes.
Nick Bondarenko didn’t know why he wanted to fill up his gas tank at three in the morning, nor did he know why he decided to drive to the Hungarian border instead of Poland. Still, he listened to his inner voice and escaped from Ukraine with his family with less than ten minutes to spare before martial law was declared.
Doxy.me CTO Heath Morrison recounts when and how he fell in love with the country of Ukraine, and shares his unique perspective on the war as an American who’s lived in Ukraine for many years.
Before February 24th, Olga Khomenko wondered why none of her friends and family seemed concerned about a Russian invasion. She was in Kiev when her friend called her at 5:25 in the morning to say Russia was attacking. The next few days were chaos as she and her friends tried to flee west. They spent nights huddled in subways and days stuck in motionless traffic while airstrike sirens filled the air around them.
Liza Zhukova was staying in a doxy.me apartment in western Ukraine when the invasion started. Being relatively safe in the west, she didn’t experience the same challenges at the beginning of the war as many of her friends and colleagues did. Since then, Liza has struggled with survivor’s guilt, and has volunteered every day to help her people in whatever ways she can.
Nataliia Bondar was one of many Ukrainian mothers faced with a horrifying question: what must I do to protect my family? Her husband and eldest son forced by law to remain in Ukraine, she must decide what to do with her mother and youngest children.
Doxy.me CEO Brandon Welch recounts the story of his first hire in Ukraine, and how that initial relationship developed into a huge and passionate Ukrainian team.
We know people in Ukraine. They’re our coworkers and friends. Heroes of Doxy.me tells real stories from the Russian invasion of Ukraine—what our employees went through and what they’re going through now—in their own voices. We have turned over the doxy.me podcast to these stories at the request of our Ukrainian colleagues. They want you to hear their stories. Listen to the podcasts, and buy a We Stand with Ukraine shirt. All of the proceeds will go to Doctors Without Borders to support their efforts in Ukraine and around the world. In this episode, doxy.me CEO Brandon Welch talks about the project and what he hopes to accomplish by amplifying the voices of these Ukrainian employees.
Psychologist Dr. Stephanie Salcedo Rossitch has experience helping veterans who suffer from PTSD and other mental health problems associated with war or military service. With the Russian invasion of Ukraine dominating news and discussion around the world, we wanted to bring her on to discuss how individuals can manage their own mental health in times of crisis. Disclaimer: The views expressed in this podcast episode are those of Dr. Rossitch, and do not necessarily reflect the position or policy of the United States Government or Department of Veterans Affairs.
