Bobby Henline: From Combat to Comedy and Courage
Manage episode 494360794 series 3664580
In this powerful episode of The Asset Mindset, Army veteran and burn survivor Bobby Henline shares how he turned unimaginable trauma into purpose and laughter. After surviving a roadside bomb in Iraq that left him severely injured, Bobby found healing through comedy, self-acceptance, and community.
He opens up about the mental health battles veterans face, how humor became his coping mechanism, and why courage isn’t the absence of fear—but moving forward despite it. Bobby also discusses the mission behind his nonprofit, Forging Forward Foundation, and how it empowers veterans and first responders through healing, hope, and humor.
Whether you're a veteran, first responder, or someone navigating adversity, Bobby’s story is a reminder that you can rewrite your narrative, find strength in scars, and laugh your way to growth.
