Chief to Chief: Josue’s Journey Through Hell and Back

On this episode of the 420 Chief Podcast, I sit down with Josue, a retired Navy Chief whose story is packed with grit, resilience, and the kind of truth veterans rarely get to speak out loud.

We dive into his time in the Navy, the highs, the heavy moments, the battles nobody saw, and the road he walked long after the uniform came off. Through trials, family struggles, and personal storms, he found a way to rise from all of it and become the steady, positive force he is today.

A huge part of his healing came from integrating plant medicine, reconnecting with himself, and learning how to navigate life without burying the pain. His journey shows exactly what happens when a veteran stops trying to fight alone and starts embracing real tools, real community, and real conversations.

If you’re looking for a story that hits hard, inspires, and opens doors for others to heal, this one is powerful.
