Dan Holder - Intuitive Soldier

Episode 141. Joining us from England is ex-Royal Marine, Positive Psychology coach and absolute gentleman, Dan Holder. As jobs go, being a patrol point man in Afghanistan is as dangerous as it gets. Volunteering for it takes a certain type of man, and Dan thrived in it. He won a Bronze Star with Valor but the real battle started when he left the military. Dan suffered Complex PTSD and this story is how he overcame it, and booze, to thrive in life. This is a WILD ride.
