Summary
Tim Cruikshank, 25-year Navy veteran, former SEAL, CEO of Bonefrog Coffee, joins us.
Tim Cruikshank joins us today with an update and a “thank you” for supporting his wife’s battle against cancer. We discuss his path to deployment and the through-line that connects what has happened with military leadership and what is now happening with medical leadership. Tim also speaks to the failure of leadership on Benghazi and how the American people are crying out for help and real solutions from the medical system. He also tells us about the healing power of God, the healing properties of the food God created, and the beautiful story of being led to a life changing treatment facility for his wife.
