Kelsi Sheren: A Veteran's Journey Through PTSD and Psychedelics

But what it gives you is a new, renewed faith in humanity, a connection and an understanding that we are so much bigger than ourselves that we are greater than we ever could have imagined if we just got out of our way.
Imagine being 18 and deployed to a war zone. That's exactly what happened to Kelsi Sheren, a former Canadian military member who faced unimaginable challenges at such a young age. In this episode of 'Rebuilding The Beast', host Festus Ezeli chats with Kelsi about her intense journey from the battlefield to healing and entrepreneurship. Kelsi opens up about her struggles with PTSD and how traditional pharmaceuticals didn't provide the relief she desperately needed.
Instead, she turned to alternative therapies like art, working out, and even psychedelics such as ayahuasca. Her candid discussion on the transformative power of these methods is both eye-opening and inspiring. Beyond her personal healing, Kelsi also founded Brass and Unity, a jewelry company that donates a portion of its proceeds to veteran organizations. She shares how this venture not only gave her a new purpose but also helped her connect with a community of people who understand her struggles.
This episode is a raw and honest look at mental health, the importance of community support, and the unorthodox paths some take to find peace. Whether you're dealing with your own challenges or supporting someone who is, Kelsi's story offers valuable insights and hope.
