Naked Warrior Recovery and Entrepreneurship with Navy Seal William Branum
Episode: 160 William Branum Join your host David Pere and Alex Felice in this episode with guest William Branum as they talk about the Navy SEAL mindset and every little thing you need to know about the compound derived from hemp—CBD. For William, as a military man, his biggest military mission ever is his transition from the military to civilian life. In this gigantic challenge common to most transitioning veterans, William shares how he fights voices, bad coping habits, and his own ego. In this episode, William explains what NAKED means in the Get Naked mindset and what never giving up can sometimes lead to. After sharing his experience getting into the SEALs, he also speaks about how CBD works and how he started his own CBD company. About William Branum: A former US Navy SEAL with 26 years of service, William Branum is the founder of NW Recovery. At an early age, William knew he wanted to be part of a team that would push him beyond whatever limits he thought he had and still enjoy the outdoors and all it had to offer. He charged forward and became an Eagle Scout, and joined the Navy immediately after graduating High School. After graduating from SEAL Training (BUD/S Class 208), he was stationed in Virginia Beach, VA, then San Diego, CA, and finally, Oahu, HI, where he served on multiple SEAL Teams taught SEAL Sniper School and deployed around the globe. As with too many veterans, William suffered from numerous physical injuries and psychological symptoms that negatively impacted his well-being and quality of life. Migraines, severe anxiety, chronic pains, difficulty focusing, difficulty sleeping/falling asleep, and depression are some of the symptoms he would struggle with on a daily basis. He tried many prescription medications to help and eventually started to "self-medicate" with alcohol to help with pain and sleep issues. During his last few years of military service, William started hearing more about the promising benefits of cannabinoids like CBD. Ultimately, he chose to wait until his retirement from the military before exploring this new world of plant-based benefits to help aid in his physical and psychological recovery. Determined to maintain his Top Secret Security clearance after the military, he sought THC-free options of CBD. Since his discovery of CBD, William has reduced anxiety, improved sleep, less joint pain, and overall improved quality of life. Today William is focused on sharing the recovery benefits he has experienced through premium quality (THC Free) CBD in hopes that other Veterans and First Responders can also experience their own recovery.
