LFPWLI: Stop SHOULDing On Yourself with Special Forces Veteran Jacob Wagner 

In this episode, Mathew, Dr. Dave, and Jacob discuss the moral injuries we often overlook and how to overcome them. They talk about what epigenetics are, how biochemistry impacts us, and the ways Jacob has been able to use neuroscience and quantum physics to find healing.

Jacob Wagner is a special forces veteran of the US Army who served in the Special Operations Forces (SOF) unit 75th Ranger Regiment for his first two deployments, then the SOF Special Mission Unit (SMU) Regimental Reconnaissance Company (RRC, also known as the Regimental Reconnaissance Detachment) for his third deployment. His first tour was in 2003 and he left the Army in 2006, but his most challenging years were yet to come as he dealt with the moral and physical injuries he was left with. In 2009, Veteran Affairs labeled him 100% permanently and totally disabled, and there were points in his life when Jacob was sure he was on his deathbed. After finding mediocre results with allopathic medicine, Jacob set out on his own spiritual journey, which taught him how to blend quantum physics with neuroscience, epigenetics, and biogeochemistry to heal. Now Jacob is finishing his last semester of an MBA program, where he is being recruited by some of the top venture capital, investment banking, and consulting firms in the world. At age 40, Jacob is healthy, vibrant, and on a mission to share what he has learned.

"Where our mind goes, energy flows."
