The Mindful Warrior: A Look at the Highs and Lows of Being a Professional Athlete
The Mindful Warrior Podcast takes readers through an athlete’s journey, and their unconventional path to healing.
Former NFL players, Eben Britton and Nate Jackson host the series, which explores topics such as cryotherapy, intuition, sports psychology, and cannabis use in major league sports.
In the episode, titled “Goodell vs Cannabis,” Jackson takes the lead, pairing Britton against NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell, in a litigation-style debate over the use of cannabis in the league.
Goodell and Britton represent opposing views on cannabis – at times, their disagreements can get a little heated, as they object to each other’s statements with courtroom lingo.
As it unfolds, Britton and Goodell discuss concussions, financial interests, and the science of cannabis.
In another episode, “The Luck Bubble,” Mindful Warrior hosts (and their beloved pit-bull, Gandalf the Grey) speak with Kirk Westwood, creator of the Luck Bubble. The Australian born military veteran turned guru tells listeners about his journey of healing, and how he uses rituals and intuition to help himself and others.
