Jesse Gould

Jesse Gould, a former Army Ranger, was plagued by severe PTSD after he returned home from combat. After quitting his job as an investment banker, selling all of his possessions, and wandering the world, he found himself in an ayahuasca retreat in the jungles of Peru. To his surprise, Jesse found that his symptoms of PTSD disappeared after the retreat, and his life was forever changed. He started HHP in April of 2017 “because I wanted to give my fellow veterans a way to heal their PTSD that had worked for me.” Since then, Heroic Hearts Project has helped over 1000 veteran families overcome the impacts of military trauma by providing them not only with access to psychedelic programs, but with professional coaching, peer support, and other resources to empower them along their healing journeys.
