If you guys have been following the recent episodes, you know that I was recently in the jungles of Costa Rica with a group of special forces military vets to work with the psychedelic plant medicine Ayahuasca in an effort to confront and heal PTSD experienced in combat.
One of the men who I immediately connected with on this journey was Brandon Mills – a Marine RECON Scout Sniper turned musician who has spent a number of years on the inner work journey after coming to grips with his own PTSD that he suffered during war.
I knew I needed to bring Brandon on this podcast because his story is one of taking his greatest pain and not only turning it into one of his greatest teachers, but also a source of his greatest creation – the music that he now puts out into the world.
And to help me dig into this story, we have a special guest appearance from Keith Bracci – who was also on the Costa Rica trip – and he’ll be standing in for Bryan today.

Stick around to the very end of this episode, and we’ll roll into the full-length version of Brandon’s most popular song on Spotify – Don’t Mistake – which is a song he wrote in the aftermath of transitioning from combat veteran to active civilian. He wanted to remind himself and others that perfect love casts out fear.
