About this episode
Today's episode kicks off by addressing a heartfelt and raw listener question, painting the picture of a 23-year-old man at the crossroads of his military career and personal life. The listener shares his turbulent journey from aspiring SEAL, battling through weight loss, smoking cessation, and the harsh realities of SEAL training, to facing a disheartening setback and feeling lost in a career path he never desired. Should he attempt training again, or should he move on?
I close out the episode by doing my best to explain my recent emergency surgery, and what I have learned from that short but extremely painful journey.
Be safe and I will see everyone in 2024!
