This week we’re talking with veterans who are seriously helping others live their best life! 

Eric Brew, Military Outreach Manager at American Corporate Partners is both a Marine Corps and Army veteran.  He’s currently helping veterans receive year-long mentorships from some of America’s most talented corporate executives. These mentors offer advice and strategies for success, and they often become lifelong friends.

We also meet Dr. Xavier Bruce, a former Air Force Lt. Colonel who created a powerful program to uplift veterans and help them overcome the stress, depression and anxiety associated with life transitions. We dig deeper into his mantra “Uplift your damn self!” and examine how his coaching empowers black and other veterans of color.

And we talk with Marine Corps veteran Kimberly Blanke, Project Manager of Veterans Curation Program from New South Associates, who offers fascinating jobs preparing and researching historical artifacts.  She shared how this work can open doors to careers in archeology, anthropology, and education.
