This bonus episode of the pod features Brent and a post-transition with the Post Modern Patriot himself, John McCarthy. Reflecting on his own successful transition as a Marine and through the lens of the things he's doing with his own podcast and blog, John reached out. We exchanged a few emails and had a couple of conversations. The more we talked, I realized the conversation we were having could provide a ton of value to military officers wanting to have the transition conversation. One of the biggest reasons I thought this conversation, in particular, would be helpful to military officers is because of how different John's perspective and transition-story is different than mine and Jay's

We talk MBA, salary, data & analytics, and what we’ve learned are best ways officers can posture themselves to crush it in the transition. We also get pretty personal about some of the things we've discovered about identity through the joys and struggles of our own transition. Needless to say, it was a fun conversation, and hopefully, you snag a piece or two to apply to your own transition.
