Welcome back to another episode of Spartan Leadership. Today, I'm deeply honored to share my conversation with Will Yeske, a beacon of resilience and purpose whose story is not just about the battlefield but about the relentless pursuit of leadership and service. 

In this episode, Will and I dive into the essence of servant leadership, especially within the veteran community, and how his initiatives are making lasting changes. We discuss the crucial transition from military to civilian life, emphasizing the importance of finding new missions that combat isolation and foster connections. Especially moving was our talk about the symbolism of the American flag in combat, serving as a poignant reminder of the unity and sacrifice it represents.
