Nature, Policy, and Purpose: Ben Davis on Outdoor Therapy for Veterans
In this episode of Consequence of Habit, JT sits down with Ben Davis, writer, former Navy SEAL, and Director of the Veteran’s Outdoor Advocacy Group (VOAG), to explore the powerful intersection of mental health, habits, and time spent outdoors. Ben shares his journey from the SEAL teams to launching VOAG, a nonprofit pushing for legislative change that recognizes outdoor recreation as a form of therapy for veterans.
Together, they dig into the healing power of nature, the challenges of veteran transition, and the uphill battle of advocating for policy reform within the VA. Ben discusses the evolution of VOAG, the creation of the VOTE Coalition, and why community and consistency are essential in recovery. Whether you’re a veteran, a civilian, or someone looking to find peace and purpose through movement and connection—this conversation hits home.
