From West Point to Plant Medicine: A Veteran’s Journey Through PTSD & Healing | Scottie Schneider What happens when a veteran loses everything—career, identity, and purpose—and is forced to rebuild from the ground up? In this powerful episode of Echo 22 Brotherhood, we sit down with Scottie Schneider, a West Point graduate, former Army officer, and founder of Ocoyai, to uncover his journey from military trauma and alcoholism to deep healing through indigenous practices and community.

We dive into:

• The reality of PTSD, trauma, and veteran identity loss

• Why traditional systems often fail veterans after service

• The truth about plant medicine (ayahuasca, integration, and healing)

• Why community—not quick fixes—is the key to long-term healing

• Indigenous wisdom, nervous system regulation, and living with purpose

This episode is for veterans, first responders, and anyone searching for real healing—not band-aid solutions. Whether you’re battling PTSD, addiction, or feeling lost after service—this conversation could change how you see your path forward.
