On this week's episode of Change Agents, Andy travels to the headquarters of GBRS Group in Virginia Beach to sit down with co-founder DJ Shipley, a 17-year Navy SEAL veteran who has built one of the most respected tier 1 training and gear companies in the industry. DJ opens up about the mental health void he encountered when he first transitioned out, why nobody was saying the words PTSD, suicide, or depression out loud even as the epidemic quietly destroyed careers and lives, and how ibogaine therapy in Mexico changed the way he sees himself and the world around him. They also dig into the brutal physical toll of 17 years at the tip of the spear, the near fatal electrocution that almost ended everything before GBRS Group got off the ground, and what it actually feels like to leave a world where you are surrounded by people capable of extreme violence with no sanity check waiting on the other side.
Change Agents is an IRONCLAD Original.
