The Smalls talks to The Vetted Network!
Listen in as your host Just Nate talks with Ravyn Robinson-Barco, Founder and CEO of Conscious Colorado Collective (operating under the DBA The Vetted Network).

• The Origin Story: Following a traumatic brain injury in 2021, Ravyn sought out non-traditional healing modalities like Reiki, Yoga, Chinese medicine, breathwork, and sound healing to take ownership of her health and avoid a lifetime of heavy prescriptions.
  
• The Vetted Network: An organization connecting professionals across alternative wellness disciplines who have completed national and state background checks to ensure safety, integrity, and professionalism.
  
• Government Contracting in Wellness: Holistic services are gaining traction in the government sector, specifically under VHA Directive 1137 for whole health and total force fitness initiatives.
  
• The Vetting Process: Professionals pay a flat monthly fee and a one-time background check, filling out a robust, government-level application before being listed so they are ready for military installations or corporate teams.
  
• Accessibility and Community: The network aims to make holistic health accessible by offering weekly in-person community meetups at Urbane Collective and an online community for those navigating life's struggles.
  
• Tap Intuit Podcast: Ravyn hosts a podcast to help individuals vet these professionals, learn their backstories, and understand alternative therapies before investing their own money.
  
• Future Vision: The long-term plan includes building a physical, third-generational space in Colorado Springs and forming a sister 501(c)(3) nonprofit to offer community access and robust wellness programming.
