What does it take to design a career that actually fits your life after the military?

In this tactical conversation, I sit down with Gary Steensgard, a People and Culture Manager at AV and a proud veteran advocate with over 15 years in HR and talent development. Gary shares how he’s shaped a career rooted in purpose, service, and building people-first cultures inside organizations.

We explore:

✅ Why every transition, military or civilian, should be approached one year at a time
✅ How to define the lifestyle you want and build a career around it
✅ What to say yes to and what to walk away from
✅ The power of impact, even if no one is watching
Whether you're in uniform, transitioning out, or already navigating civilian life, this episode will help you rethink what success means for you, and give you tools to design a life and career that truly align.
