Building Great Leaders with William Branum
A Highly Decorated Retired Navy Seal, Best Selling Author, and TEDx Speaker, William Branum's commitment to serving others has been at the forefront of his entire life.
At an early age, William knew he wanted to be part of a team that would push him to do good and be great in life while still enjoying the outdoors and all that it had to offer.
Finding that goal in the Eagle Scouts, William would move on to join the Navy immediately after graduating high school.
From there, he would go on to graduate from SEAL Training and serve on multiple SEAL Teams before moving on to become a SEAL Sniper instructor and deploying around the globe.
As with too many veterans and soldiers, William suffered from numerous physical injuries and psychological symptoms that started to impact his well-being and quality of life negatively.
Trying many prescription medications to help, William eventually started to "self-medicate" with alcohol to help with the pain and sleep issues.
Knowing that he could not continue this way, once he retired from the military, William would move on to explore a new world of plant-based treatments that he kept hearing about with promising benefits, like CBD.
Determined to maintain his Top-Secret Security clearance from the military, he sought THC-free options of CBD.
Since then, William has not only improved his quality of life but is dedicated to sharing the recovery benefits he has experienced in hopes of helping other Veterans and First Responders find an elite quality of life.
William has made it his mission to share the lessons that he has learned with others as a speaker, author, and business/leadership coach.
Listen in as William and I sit down to discuss how his traumas, challenges, and injuries led him to a path of renewed hope, inspiration, and recovery, his mission to help others do the same, and what has helped him create a life of FEARLESS HAPPYNESS!
