Eben Britton is a former NFL athlete turned successful businessman, coach, yogi, podcast host and author. When he isnt coach or podcasting, Eben leads individuals through meditation, breath work, and yoga at events.

In this episode we discuss Ebens career in the NFL, and how a spinal injury led him to experience first hand the corruption within the league between team, doctor, and athlete. We also discuss Ebens childhood trauma, how it affected his adult life, and Ebens eventual overcoming of inner turmoil through the Al-Anon program. Finally we delve into his journey on the shamanic path, his experience with certain medicines, and how he has chosen to share his inner medicine man with the world.
