Blake
I’ve been struggling with the unseen effects of my service as an Army veteran including Iraq deployment during early peak days of IEDs and the trauma and anxiety from those attacks. And also, the challenges of no longer being in the service--this no longer belonging with any community and a deep sense of isolation. These challenges have impacted my relationships, my work, and my overall quality of life. My brain is unable to overcome these issues on my own. I am reaching out for your help because I believe the support and resources you provide could help me begin to heal. I am looking for direct help through the experience and to work with professionals who can guide me toward learning to live a life of meaning. My goal is to regain stability, rebuild my sense of purpose, and find hope for the future.
What would going through the TMW program mean to you?
Going through this program would mean having a genuine chance to take my life back. It would help me change instead of burying my trauma and letting it quietly control me. It would mean being surrounded by people who understand what I’ve been through without judgment. This is both professionals who can help me heal and fellow veterans who can remind me I’m not alone in the field or at home. It would help me rebuild stability and purpose so that I can better serve our community.

Heroic Hearts Project (HHP) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit that connects military veterans struggling with trauma to psychedelic therapy options including ayahuasca, psilocybin, ibogaine, and ketamine treatments in combination with professional coaching and integration (location of retreat will depend on treatment plan). We provide these veterans, who have often exhausted all of the resources offered by the Department of Veteran Affairs and don’t know where to turn, with education about and access to these alternative healing modalities. Our mission is to restore hope and empower each veteran in his or her own healing process.
Secondarily, HHP aims to contribute to the growing base of psychedelic research, to educate the public on the potential of psychedelics based on the outcomes of this research, and to advocate for policy changes enabling increased and more equitable access to psychedelic therapies.
SFF provides the support necessary for SEALs to realize their full potential and to continue to serve their new communities, families, and employers with the same passion and commitment they had in the teams.
We created SOC-F in 2013 for one purpose: to make a positive and meaningful difference in the lives of SOF families who have given so much for our country and our freedom. We do this by raising money for one incredibly worthwhile purpose: to provide medical, financial, and other support to SOF members and their families in ways that are often not met through other sources–what we call the “gaps.”
The Hope Project was birthed from one woman’s healing journey. Allison Wilson, founder of The Hope Project started her journey with psychedelic healing two years ago and since then has made it her purpose to support spouses, Veteran Women and Gold Star wives with connections to these modalities, coaching and scholarships. The Hope Project has supported 34 women to date and continues the work daily. We have partnered with numerous non-profits in the space and welcome new partnerships so we can support as many women as possible!
At The Hope Project we also feel very strongly that spouses should be involved in their husband’s journey, and we educate them on integration and feelings of being enough. We support spouses with a one-month program of one-to-one coaching and community calls.
For the spouse, Veteran Woman or Gold Star Wife, we have a four-month program with connections to retreats, one-to-one coaching and community support.
Lastly, The Hope Project also offers yearly scholarships that support women in mission aligned certificates and will hopefully continue to employ women to share their passions of coaching and more.
Everyone at The Mission Within is incredible. The entire process is so welcoming and safe that most of the staff and coaches are fellow veterans who have been through the process and have gone through many of the things I have gone through, making the entire experience feel safe. In my opinion, this is the essential tool that we have to help men and women struggling with PTSD.
