Ep. 80 Helping Veterans With PTSD Through Virtual Reality-Bric’s American Story

Bric Simpson is a military leader, 20-year combat veteran, inventor, public speaker, and entrepreneur.   He has served several stateside humanitarian mobilizations and an overseas deployment from 2005-2006 in Ramadi Iraq with the 222nd Field Artillery out of Utah.

Bric is passionate about changing veteran lives through technology and community-building, and the Forge Forward Project is his life’s work. As early as 2016, he had plans to develop a business that would allow him to give back to the veteran community. In 2018, he developed a line of lifestyle apparel and men’s care products as a way to raise funds to help his fellow vets in need.

Bric and Forge Forward are developing a virtual reality program, available to all veterans across the country.  Through this program, veterans can connect with other veterans and therapists without ever leaving their home, broadening the scope of mental health to more of our brave men and women who selflessly defended, protected, and gave aid to Americans at home and abroad.

“Adversity doesn’t define you, it refines you–if you let it."  Bric Simpson
