Chris Irwin is a retired Navy SEAL Commander who suffered from severe mental and physical chronic illness after his time in the military. Through an extensive journey of self-discovery, he overcame these conditions and now teaches mind fitness through his brand, RARE SENSE. He publishes content through Substack, including weekly training, monthly articles, and podcast episodes. His work is changing the paradigm and stigma around mental health and human performance. Chris is also a singer/songwriter whose original works include the score and song \u201cSacrifice\u201d from the film Murph: The Protector about Navy SEAL and Medal of Honor recipient Michael Murphy. Both made the shortlist for the 86th (2013) Annual Academy Awards in the categories of \u201cBest Original Score\u201d and \u201cBest Original Song,\u201d respectively.\n\nhttps://www.navysealfoundation.org/\n\nSupport the podcast by supporting our sponsors at\xa0www.hazardground.com/sponsors\n\nShop Amazon!
