Coming Home Well

Dropped in the middle of the jungle, five men and a Labrador were the secret weapon in finding the elusive enemy. Tyler talks with Sue Merritt, author of Seek On: The History of the Combat Tracker Teams of the Vietnam War and wife to Frank Merritt, one of the first to volunteer for the teams, about this well kept secret against the guerilla warfare tactics of the Viet Cong. Trained by the British Jungle Warfare School in Malaya, these men and their canines were fear by the Viet Cong and highly effective in hunting down the enemy. Sadly, the Combat Tracker Teams were shrouded in secrecy and hidden away from history.

Asking someone to go grab a cup of coffee is an excellent way to connect no matter your relationship. Coach Alfredo talks about how connecting over a cup of coffee can open the doors to reconnecting with a family member or old friend or maybe promoting yourself to a potential employer. Not matter the reason it is an opportunity to be yourself on a neutral platform away from the chaos of home or work. So go grab that cup of coffee with someone you want to connect with and enjoy the conversation.

Shoving all your thoughts and emotions into a bottle and putting it on a shelf is not the best medicine for healing your soul. Tyler talks with Lani Hankins, Army veteran, author, podcaster and artist about pulling the cork out of the bottle to allow the truth to be released. Words can be very powerful and Lani found that writing her book Bottled Away ~ Confessions of a Struggling Veteran gave life to not only her stories but to others who were also struggling but too afraid to release their own truth.
