Meet Nick Lavery:
An active duty member of the US Army Special Forces (commonly known as the “Green Berets”) - a group of the military that performs critical missions, including direct action, counterinsurgency, foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare.
In 2013, on Nick's second combat rotation to Afghanistan, he and his Detachment fell victim to an insider attack ultimately resulting in the loss of his leg. Following a year of surgeries and initial recovery including the use of a prosthetic at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center, he returned to his unit. Refusing a military medical retirement, Nick set his sights on returning to operational status. In 2015, at the conclusion of a challenging, comprehensive assessment designed to evaluate Nick's abilities to operate, he returned to his Detachment and was subsequently deployed once again to Afghanistan conducting full spectrum combat operations. Nick is considered the first Green Beret to return to combat as an above the knee amputee.
In this episode, Nick and I explore his journey from childhood to his entry into the service; discussing his experience transitioning to a focused high-performer and the mindset that motivated him to return to service, become a motivational speaker, and write his book: Objective Secure.
Nick Lavery is one incredible guy - I guarantee this is one conversation you will NOT want to miss!
