SoFree is partnering with ATLVets, Advancing the Line for Veterans, the Atlanta nonprofit started by Army veteran Zack Knight. ATLVets helps veterans start businesses and figure out what comes next after service. I've had the honor of knowing Zack and his organization for a few years now and one thing is for sure. His community loves and respects what he has built. Trust is not always easy, but he has gained that in the veteran community because he drives results and there is no doubt how much ATL Vets cares for their veterans and their families and supporters. I'm very excited to announce that this week our team is at the ATLVets Summit at the College Football Hall of Fame to kick off our partnership with them!
How soFree helps
SoFree uses bilateral stimulation, a simple left to right rhythm, to help get your body out of an anxiety attack, panic attack, or stress response in the moments you need it. There are a lot of apps and techniques out there for anxiety and panic, but most of them take weeks or months to actually work, or you need the bandwidth to sit down and be present with them. Veterans and the people who love and support them know that moment — the one where you don't have weeks, you need relief right now. That is where SoFree comes in. This isn't therapy. It's not medication. What it WILL do is reset your nervous system fast for the moment your body needs to calm down.
Why we built it
My brother Dan died suddenly, no warning, on Thanksgiving Day 2022. After that, my brother Jeremy and I started building something. We wanted something for the moment you actually need it. There is no learning curve, nothing to practice ahead of time. You just begin the session and neuroscience does the rest.
Why ATLVets
We already love the mission of ATLVets and now we can help them with one of the silent struggles many veterans deal with, stress and anxiety. In our beta, we measured biometrics across 2,000 sessions and saw a 45% reduction in stress in under two minutes. We are proud of that and excited to bring more people on board.
Now we're bringing that to the veteran community. Partnering with ATLVets means SoFree ends up in front of veteran entrepreneurs and the whole VETLANTA community.
