Home Bound Veteran

Jake Harriman is the CEO of Nuru International (www.nuruinternational.org), a non-profit organization that seeks to fight terrorism by ending extreme poverty. The boldness and scope of this mission is rooted in Jake’s experience in combat as a special forces operator where he witnessed how terrorist organizations were able to capitalize on the desperation of those they ruled over. In this podcast Jake recounts his tentative path to the US Naval Academy, the joys and challenges of being in the special forces, and a transition out of the military that included a few curve balls.

In this episode of Home Bound Veteran we hear from Theresa and Per Larson of Movement-Rx. Theresa tells us about her experience in the Marines, battling a disease that ended her career, and her journey out of this low to creating a company and starting a family.
