Ep. 106 - Combat Corpsman Finds Healing With Plant Medicine, Puts The Ladder Down To Help Others Heal
Description
Jerod Napier is a retired United States Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer who served honorably as a corpsman on 4 combat deployments to both Iraq and Afghanistan, including 50 days in Fallujah as the ‘Doc’ to a Marine unit. Suffering from combat wounds – seen and unseen – he sought to numb his pain with alcohol, drugs, and women. He experienced a dark night of the soul where he sat in his truck with his Sig 229 on his lap with tears streaming onto it. A call from a brother pulled him back from the edge. He began his healing journey by exploring psychedelics intentionally with Plant Medicine and found a path to health and healing. On the medicine he was able to find healing with those he killed. He owns and operates Rising Ridge, a 508 c1a Faith Based Organization focused on healing the collective through value driven behavior and the intentional use of plant medicine. Located in Tulsa Oklahoma, Rising Ridge focuses on raising the Vibration of the collective, as well as providing a safe and sacred space for Veterans to explore alternative modalities to find their health and happiness.
