Summary

*Important Disclaimer at End of Summary* We have all heard of the American Dream, the classic rags-to-riches story. While it may seem completely out of the realm of possibility to most, Vietnam veteran and entrepreneur Bob Parsons is proof that even with all of the odds stacked against you, the impossible CAN come true. After serving in Vietnam, Bob started his own businesses, most notably Go-Daddy, selling it for a cool couple billion dollars. However even after all that success, Bob realized that a deeper wound needed to be tended to. The PTSD he suffered from since the war became too difficult to bear, launching him into a psychedelic healing journey that cured his condition and, as Bob puts it, allowed him to finally return home, 48 years later.   We hope you enjoy this powerful episode and if you or a loved one are suffering from PTSD, we hope you find this information helpful.  BOB’S RESOURCES: Instagram: @drbobparsons Website: www.bobparsons.com  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and digital entrepreneur and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.  ABOUT BETTER TOGETHER WITH MARIA MENOUNOS: Better Together with Maria Menounos is a daily digital talk-show that brings you the world's leading healers, experts, celebrities and game-changers to share groundbreaking secrets and tips to getting better in all areas of life.
