This week I sit down with Retired Deputy Sheriff Rob Poynter. Rob and I discuss his use of plant based medicine to help address his trauma. Rob shares his journey from the prep work, the experience itself and the after care. We have heard of the benefits of psilocybin therapy in treating different trauma related situations. I wanted to know more and Rob certainly added some great first hand account information concerning this treatment modality. I'll be following up this episode with another, from the Co-Founder / Executive Director of the S.I.R.E.N project, Angela Grahm. Angela leads an organization that helps first responders and veterans heal through the use of psychedelic medicines . Sit back and give this episode a listen and share it with someone that may be struggling.

This week John Mattingly and I sit down to discuss "12 Seconds In The Dark", A Police Officers Firsthand Account of the Breonna Taylor Raid. I started off the interview apologizing to John for doing what I think a lot of us do when it comes to incidents that are reported in the media, we believe what we are told. At every turn mainstream media has failed to report the truth and have conveniently replaced it with whatever version supports the us vs them , defund, movement. They run with lies because agency leadership allows them to do so. When lies aren't challenged with the truth, when repeated enough, those lies become facts in the eyes of the public. John Mattingly, his brothers on that warrant, his family in the aftermath have been betrayed. If you don't think I can happen to you, give this podcast a listen, reflect, and commit to being better in all that you do. Thank you John Mattingly, for your courage and commitment to the truth as unpopular as it may be, God Bless.

This week I was honored to sit down with Nick Lavery. Nick was so gracious with his time, the most humblest of men, he and I had a conversation you absolutely don't want to miss. We didn't get into the events of 2013 that shaped his life. We instead focused on his "why", and the lessons he has learned from a lifetime of never quitting. Come away a better version of yourself for listening to this amazing human being. Even with my limited interaction with Nick, he's inspired me to be a better version of John. Until next week, take care of yourself and each other, God Bless, John

Chief Warrant Officer Two (CW2) Nick Lavery

Nick, born and raised in Massachusetts, is an active-duty member of The United States Army Special Forces. Commonly known as the Green Berets, the Special Forces perform critical missions including direct action, counterinsurgency, foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare.

In 2013, while deployed to Afghanistan, he and his Detachment fell victim to an insider attack ultimately resulting in the loss of his leg. Following a year of surgeries and initial recovery including the use of a prosthetic at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center, he returned to his unit. Refusing a military medical retirement, Nick set his sights on returning to operational status.

In 2015, at the conclusion of a challenging, comprehensive assessment designed to evaluate Nick’s abilities to operate, he returned to his Detachment and was subsequently deployed once again to Afghanistan conducting full spectrum combat operations. Nick is considered the first Special Forces operator to return to combat as an above-the-knee amputee.

Nick is currently serving as a Special Forces Warrant Officer and is widely recognized as an experienced subject matter expert in special operations, intelligence fusion, mission planning and complex problem solving across all operational continuums. He is also the first amputee in military history to complete the Special Forces Warrant Officer Technical and Tactical Certification course, the Special Operations Combatives Program Instructor course, and the Special Forces Combat Diver Qualification course.

Nick’s awards include the Silver Star, three Purple Hearts, two Bronze Stars, Bronze Star with “V” for valor, Defense Meritorious Service Medal, two Meritorious Service Medals, Joint Service Commendation Medal, Joint Service Achievement Medal, two Army Commendation Medals, Army Achievement Medal, the OSS Society Peter Ortiz Award, the Bruce Price Leadership Award, and the Special Operations Command Excalibur Award.

Nick is a warrior, leader, speaker, author and most importantly a husband and father of two young boys.
