Episode 7: Nate Boyer former Green Baret and NFL Athlete on vulnerability in the lockeroom and battlefield

from Mind Medicine · host Brandt McCartney

Nate Boyer has a one of a kind story and has worn numerous hats in his young life. Boyer served five tours in the United States Army where he earned his Green Baret. After years of service, Nate attended the University of Texas – Austin where he later received a football scholarship after walking on. Nate then continued his childhood dream of playing in the NFL where he became the oldest NFL rookie in history while playing for the Seattle Seahawks. Nate cofounded Merging Vets and Players, a non-profit focused on creating community for combat veterans and retired professional athletes. In this episode, Brandt and Nate talk about the challenges both veterans and athletes face when the uniform comes off, and Nate shows vulnerability through sharing his experience with these same troubles.
