In this episode, we hear the amazing account of Case Thomas's decision to retire and the deliberate decision to live in the present each step of the way: from devoting 100% of his energy and focus to his job before terminal leave, the decision to use that period to truly rest, and to start his job search after he was in a retired status. Case's networking and job search may resonate with a lot of us: a general idea of what he wanted and the struggle to parlay his military experience into breaking into a non-attorney role in industry. He also talks about the danger in listening to everyone about things like resumes and one's LinkedIn Profile. Case now serves as the Vice President, Global Learning, Development & Performance in Austin, TX. His LinkedIn profile can be found at https://www.linkedin.com/in/casey-z-thomas.
