From West Point to the Jungle: Scotty’s Journey of Healing & Plant Medicine

from Spirits and Stories With Donald Dunn

In this episode, Donald Dunn sits down with Scotty — a West Point graduate, former U.S. Army officer, and entrepreneur whose life took an extraordinary turn after a near-fatal experience with hypothermia and frostbite. After losing toes and leaving the military, Scotty chased success in the business world, launching and selling two SaaS companies, only to discover that money didn’t bring fulfillment. His path led him deep into the jungles of Colombia, where he now lives as a bridge between military discipline and indigenous wisdom. Scotty shares how plant medicine, ancestral knowledge, and community living helped him confront trauma, break destructive cycles, and ultimately discover freedom and happiness. This powerful conversation dives into ayahuasca, veteran healing, indigenous practices, and the courage to face the pain we often avoid. If you’re a veteran, seeker, or simply someone searching for a new path toward healing and meaning, this episode is a must-listen.  https://www.ocoyai.com
