I can think of many heroes on the Marine Corps' 248th Birthday. In this episode, I had the privilege of hosting a Marine Corps veteran I consider a modern-day hero, Ellis Craig.

After returning from a combat deployment and hanging up his uniform, Ellis was faced with a new kind of battle - thriving in a civilian world. Imagine working odd jobs to make ends meet, struggling to fit in after being shaped by a military mindset. Ellis did not only survive, but he also fought, he persevered. From his uncle's advice to stay in Washington, D.C., and fight for his dreams, to his experiences with nightclub security and living with his sister's family, Ellis' journey is a testament to determination and resilience.

We wrap up by exploring his career trajectory after leaving the Marine Corps, his work at the Pentagon, and how he uses his platform to inspire other military veterans. Don't miss out on this inspiring conversation with Ellis Craig and Happy 248th Birthday Marines!
