"Had I not found what #cannabis can do for my pain and PTSD, I very likely would have ended up a statistic. I couldn’t stand the terrible side effects my VA prescriptions were causing, so in 2015, I completely shut myself off from the world. I nearly lost everything. But with the help of cannabis and #nature, I was able to go from addicted and alienated, to #thriving and happy. I did the work and soon learned to accept myself by sharing my experiences with others. Talking seemed to lift the burden. Now...I am a cannabis success story. I wanted to sing it from the mountain tops, literally. So...In late 2016, I founded @VeteransWalkAndTalk (VWAT). My goal was to form a universal gathering of loving #veterans who would walk and talk once a week to collectively dedicate ourselves to cannabis, #lifestyle change, and service to others. Cannabis is the great unifier. Since founding VWAT I have spoken. In Washington DC twice on behalf of senate bills it the Veterans Cannabis Coalition, which I am on the Board of, to help veterans get access to cannabis. I have spoken at city council meetings, led education workshops at VFW Halls in Burbank CA, written for many media outlets, and some countless appearances. I work with cannabis protocols that are saving lives every single day I’ve seen it and I need to be given the chance to show the world. I’ve seen it all over the country I’ve seen it in the halls of DC. For 3 years I’ve traveled the country and learned what I can about this #plant. I’m learning every day. I’ve lived at farms and ran with gangsters/healers, the same circle. Every veteran #healed by cannabis is another potential #leader in our community. Through cannabis and lifestyle change we have proven that we can heal even from the worst wounds."
VWAT is now four chapters strong with many more on the way. We plan on being national within 5 years as well as being at the forefront of #CannabisResearch and advocacy.
