It’s not an escape.It forces you to confront everything you’ve been running from.Trauma. Regret. Identity. Purpose.For some, it breaks them.For him… it rebuilt him.This is the side of healing no one talks about.🎙 Full episode available now.#ayahuasca #veterans #mentalhealth #healingjourney #psychedelics#militarylife #ptsdrecovery #selfgrowth #spiritualawakening#podcastclips #realtalk #traumahealing #mensmentalhealth#4yearsaslave #jmach #combatveteran #lifechanging
