  • Brandon Peacock: Hit The Ground Running Part I
    May 15 2024
    Drive-by shooting survivor, Brandon Peacock is an incredible human whose resilience and determination have turned a personal tragedy into a beacon of hope for many. On a fateful summer evening in 2020, Brandon's life was forever altered when he became the unintended victim of a drive-by shooting. Shot three times, a bullet that hit his femoral artery could have ended his life, but instead, it marked the beginning of a new chapter. Brandon founded the charity Hit The Ground Running, an organization dedicated to supporting trauma survivors, helping them to reach their new 100%. The charity stands as a pillar of support, providing the tools and guidance necessary for trauma survivors to rebuild their lives and thrive. Brandon's story is one of triumph over adversity, and his charity is a reflection of his commitment to giving back and aiding others in their darkest hours. If the future is in the hands of people like him, I have hope. Through his actions, Brandon Peacock exemplifies the power of human spirit and the impact one person can have on the world.

  • The Intersection of Service and Healing: A Conversation of Medicinal Marijuana and Veteran Wellness with CannaConnect
    Apr 14 2024
    Healing and mental health management does not have a one size fits all. In the ongoing quest to offer the most effective tools for managing mental health challenges, the conversation around medicinal marijuana consistently emerges. This podcast embarks on a journey to understand the therapeutic potential of cannabis, particularly in the context of those who have served in the military. While I'm not endorsing or advocating for the use of marijuana, I can't exclude it as it is imperative to remain open to treatment options and treat the subject with respect as it applies to the evolution of medical research and holistic healing. I invited this week's guests Corey Paris, Director of Veteran Relations, and Scott Atkinson, 25 year Canadian Armed Forces Vet and Veteran Ambassador, both of CannaConnect to shed light on the experience of veterans who advocate for medicinal marijuana as a catalyst for healing. This episode serves as an invitation to explore, educate, and engage in a dialogue about the possibilities that medicinal marijuana may hold for the mental and physical well-being of the men and women who serve our country.
