Bare Naked Bravery: How To Be Creatively Courageous - Stories Of Raw Valor, Inspired Entrepreneurship, And Exposed Ambition

Today is going to be an adventure, that's for sure. After overcoming drug addiction, a diagnosis of PTSD after the war in Iraq, and a battle with alcohol that pushed him to the brink of suicide, Akshay has since explored the most hostile environments on the planet and built a global business helping people live limitless lifestyles. Combining years of research in neuroscience and psychology with his life experience, Akshay wrote the book “Fearvana: The Revolutionary Science of How to Turn Fear Into Health, Wealth and Happiness.”

 I wanted to have Akshay join us because 1) he was nominated to the show by a previous guest and Bare Naked Bravery community member, David Shriner-Cahn but 2) we haven't featured a perspective of PTSD yet and I really appreciated Akshay's particular experience and journey in this. Also, 3) the Dalai Lama wrote the foreword to his book and I really wanted to know how that came about! I think you'll really enjoy this. Let's make like a skydiver and jump on into it!   Brave Take-Aways
