Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

In the studio this week, we have Monty Heath, a decorated veteran from Navy SEAL Team 2 and Red Squadron, a former supervisor for the U.S. Navy SEAL mentorship program and BUD/S preparatory program, helping veterans develop their entrepreneur goals, a father who has endured the harrowing, near-death experience of his eleven-year-old son, and who has successfully undergone supervised psychedelic treatments to facilitate psychological introspection. Monty brings a myriad of life lessons and incredible experiences to the table in this week’s TNQP episode.
In this episode you will hear:
- If I want something, I have to put 100% into it. I can’t just half-ass what I want.
- I’ve learned a lot from failure.
- When I started working as a Special Olympics skiing instructor, that’s where humanity entered into my life.
- I wanted to be a corpsman, but I didn’t want to help people. I wanted to hurt people. That’s why I got out of it.
- All my friends were SEALS; all my friends were cool; all my friends were good-looking; we live these privileged, bad-ass lives, but what about someone who’s born with Down Syndrome?
- [Special Olympics] It chipped away at my arrogance, and it installed humility.
- As a self-punishment, I didn’t want to go work for the super cool guy organizations. I want to be with common people and common soldiers.
- We have to be uncomfortable to grow and evolve.
- Monty’s 11-year-old son, George, had what started as a bad headache. That quickly developed into his spine hurting, then continuing to degrade, until it was determined in the hospital that he had contracted Bacterial Meningitis He slipped into a coma and “coded” as he lay in Monty’s arms dying. He slowly began to recover, but spent 51 days in the hospital & was paralyzed. Yet, some of the first words he spelled out for his mom were: “you and dad complete each other.”
- The idea of waking up and writing down what you’re grateful for can be a life-changer.
- Gratitude & attitude and gratitude is like a see-saw. If your gratitude is high you can’t have a bad attitude.
- I started to understand the power of being vulnerable. It’s disarming.
- Ibogaine therapy will make you go through your trauma, and make you come out on the other side better. I suggest every human being on the planet experience it. Communication & relationships to me is like new.
- Empathy is an important thing in life.
