210 War Horses for Veterans with Patrick Benson
After years of combat, veterans can be left with specific issues which — if untreated — could keep them from pursuing their goals and enjoying the life they have. But, did you know that horses can help through the healing process? In this episode, hear about War Horses for Veterans with Patrick Benson.
“The great thing about our program is … we have connections with CEOs and owners who could provide us with resources that we could provide to [veterans].” – Patrick Benson
Patrick is the Director and Co-Founder of the nonprofit War Horses for Veterans. He served in Iraq and in the Kosovo campaigns as an Army Infantryman.
Certified Horse Trainer
Patrick always had the entrepreneurial bug. After his career in the Army, he took the first step and studied horsemanship and horse training with a renowned clinician and trainer. Soon, he completed the program and became a certified horse trainer.
Healing from Horses
But eight years later, Patrick started having anxiety attacks and other issues left by his combat experiences. Little did he know how therapeutic his newfound career was.
His comrades helped him overcome the challenges he faced. That became a big stepping stone for him.
Nonprofit for Combat Veterans
Patrick sincerely appreciates all the support he received during those tough times. During a big competition in Kentucky, he had the opportunity to connect with highly successful individuals.
Later on, it inspired him to launch War Horses for Veterans. It is a nonprofit organization that helps combat veterans heal from the challenges of coming home.
