Recon Platoon Leader in Afghanistan | Clay Smith | Ep. 359

In this episode, former recon platoon leader Clayton Smith shares his raw and compelling journey from combat in Afghanistan, where he earned a Purple Heart, to his personal battle with unaddressed trauma and alcoholism back home. He details his transformative experience with ibogaine therapy and his subsequent mission to co-found Beyond Service, a non-profit dedicated to providing free, comprehensive psychedelic treatment to veterans, first responders, and their families. Smith's story highlights the critical need for alternative healing modalities and destigmatizing mental health support within the veteran community.https://beondibogaine.com/beond-service/https://beondibogaine.com/Today's Sponsors:StopBox USA⬇️Get firearm security redesigned and save with BOGO the StopBox Pro AND 10% off @StopBoxUSA with code HOUSE at https://www.stopboxusa.com/HOUSE GhostBed⬇️https://www.ghostbed.com/houseFOR 10% off! For ad free video and audio and access to live streams and Eyes On Geopolitics...JOIN OUR PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/c/TheTeamHouseTo help support the show and for all bonus content including:-live shows and asking guest questions -ad free audio and video-early access to shows-Access to ALL bonus segments with our guestsSubscribe to our Patreon! ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseNew merch, patches, and stickers! ⬇️https://theteamhouse-shop.fourthwall.comSupport the show here:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouse___________________________________________________Subscribe to the new EYES ON podcast here:⬇️https://www.youtube.com/@EyesOnGeopoliticsPod/featured__________________________________Jack Murphy's new book "We Defy: The Lost Chapters of Special Forces History" ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chapters-Special-History-ebook/dp/B0DCGC1N1N/——————————————————————Or make a one time donation at: ⬇️https://ko-fi.com/theteamhouseSocial Media: ⬇️The Team House Instagram:https://instagram.com/the.team.house?utm_medium=copy_linkThe Team House Twitter:https://twitter.com/TheTeamHousePodJack’s Instagram:https://instagram.com/jackmcmurph?utm_medium=copy_linkJack’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackmurphyrgr?s=21Dave’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/dave_parke?s=21Team House Discord: ⬇️https://discord.gg/wHFHYM6SubReddit: ⬇️https://www.reddit.com/r/TheTeamHouse/Jack Murphy's memoir "Murphy's Law" can be found here:⬇️ https://www.amazon.com/Murphys-Law-Journey-Investigative-Journalist/dp/1501191241The Team Room Reading Room (Amazon Affiliate links):⬇️ https://jackmurphywrites.com/the-team-room-reading-room/Intro music by https://www.youtube.com/user/RemixSample"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"00:00 - Start 00:22 - Guest Introduction07:58 - Recon Platoon Experiences30:28 - Ambushed in Afghanistan 43:40 - TBI Diagnosis & Challenges57:23 - Breaking Point & Seeking Help1:17:39 - Founding Beyond Service1:27:01 - Ibogaine's Efficacy & AccessBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support.
