47: A Story on PTSD Healing

Published: Nov. 23, 2020, 5 p.m.

Today we are going to be talking about PTSD with my guest, Brent Magnussen. He is a best selling American author, a professional speaker, and a former U.S Army Combat Engineer. Brent sits on the board of the Resilient Warrior Foundation, a non-profit organization that serves US Veterans and First Responders who suffer from PTSD acquired during their service. RWF provides scholarships to Veterans and First Responders with PTSD to study the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in the academy of their choice. We will get into why Brent decided to practice jiujitsu, what it has done for his PTSD and what he has tried in the past to help with this. Brent will share the #1 thing jiujitsu has brought him that he misses from his time in the army and how it has helped him transition from life in service to life out of service.
