With ~500 Vietnam vets passing every day and generational trauma (including Agent Orange effects) still rippling through families, the urgency is undeniable.Dr. Hansen shares powerful stories:• A chance encounter with a Vietnam vet at a dollar store, unpacking decades of shame and guilt• How plant medicines (ayahuasca, psilocybin) lift moral injury, restore spiritual connection, and spark profound post-traumatic growth• Why trauma isn’t pathology but a signal – and how psychedelics help rewrite narratives, forgive the unforgivable, and turn wounds into giftsThe heart of the episode: a fundraiser through Heroic Hearts Project to fully sponsor a domestic psilocybin retreat for Vietnam veterans ($35k for one retreat – let’s double it!). Heroic Hearts (veteran-led) provides preparation coaching, ceremonies, integration, and community – transforming “dead eyes” into lives reignited, families reunited, and hope restored.We explore:• Government/VA shortcomings vs. nonprofit action• The military-industrial complex and lip-service “support”• Lingering stigma around psychedelics (tied to Vietnam-era politics)• Why this should be reparative justice, not charityThis isn’t just a conversation – it’s a rally cry. Share this episode. Donate if you can. Reach out to influencers. Apply if you’re a vet. Let’s honor their service with real healing before it’s too late.🌿 Support the Fundraiser & Heroic Hearts Project: heroicheartsproject.org📖 Dr. Randall Hansen: randallshansen.com (books, articles,)donation link:https://donorbox.org/bringing-vietnam-veterans-home#VietnamVeterans #PsychedelicHealing #PTSD #HeroicHeartsProject #TraumaAlchemy #PostTraumaticGrowth #TrueLifePodcast One on One Video call W/George https://tidycal.com/georgepmonty/60-minute-meetingSupport the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_US🔥 Save $2,000: Master Plant Medicines from Home (Ayahuasca, Psilocybin, San Pedro & Cannabis)Transform Your Mental Health & Consciousness with Blue Morpho’s Proven Courses:https://bluemorpho.org/plant-medicine-training/george/?ref=george
