How vulnerable have you felt in 2020? I know I have. My guest this week is David Acosta, Founder of Fight Back Nation, a company dedicated to teaching companies and schools on how to deal with an active shooter situation. In this episode, we going to share with you what conventional active shooter training doesn’t teach you.

In this episode you’ll hear about the Honor Foundation from CEO Matt Stevens. Matt was a graduate in the first cohort when the Virginia Beach campus opened in the spring of 2016, where I was one of the original five coaches. Matt is a retired 26 year Navy SEAL Captain who is now leading The Honor Foundation which provides Special Forces Operators and support staff structured career transition support.
