In Episode 12 of Silent Service, Matt and Will unpack the quiet courage it takes to change careers. Framed as a 30–40 minute mentorship session, this conversation explores the real challenges of starting over — from uncertainty and risk to the humility of becoming a beginner again. With practical steps and faith-filled reflection, they encourage listeners to embrace the awkward, trust the pause, and take bold, honest steps toward what’s next. Starting over may cost you comfort, but it could give you your future.
