Hey friends,
I wasn’t planning to relaunch Defenders LIVE until the end of the year — but I realized something: I miss it too much to wait.
I miss the conversations that challenge us to grow.I miss learning from incredible protectors and leaders.And I miss connecting with you — the people walking this same path of courage, faith, and personal defense.
So... we’re back.
🎙️ Coming up on Defenders LIVE:
* Randy Watt — leadership, mindset, and resilience in the life of a protector
* Paul Maloney — former Omaha PD SWAT officer and author of RAM One
* A special tribute episode honoring my friend John Holschen, featuring an unreleased conversation he was passionate about sharing before he passed.
These stories mean something — not just because of who they come from, but because of what they remind us: that protecting life starts from the inside out.
If you haven’t already, join my private Facebook group, Defenders LIVE with Lora Thorson, where I share more of my own journey — training, health, mindset, and the small daily choices that shape us as protectors.
Thank you for sticking with me. I can’t wait to bring you along for this next chapter.
With gratitude and purpose,Lora
