About this episode
When a Navy captain risks his career to protect his crew during a crisis at sea, the fallout becomes a masterclass in loyalty and moral courage. Brett Crozier shares hard-won lessons from his time commanding an aircraft carrier through impossible circumstances. Then, Navy SEAL commander Mike Hayes brings a different lens to military leadership, exploring what it really means to pursue excellence without ever settling for "good enough."
