On The Other Side: Leadership After Transition episodes

  • OTOS w/ Ej O'Brien

    An Air Force Veteran of 21 years, Ej O'Brien retired and as he began the process of looking for what's next, he put together a plan for success.

    He attended several cohorts to "test the market" and found FourBlock, which ultimately led him to his first post-retirement job at USAA. Finding a purpose was important to him, so he stayed connected with FourBlock and eventually left USAA to pursue an opportunity to provide some light for transitioning Service Members.

    Today, he is the Vice President of Programs and is impacting lives every day!

    Come and take a listen to see what Ej is doing, On The Other Side.

    A Cybersecurity professional, he's an author, a business owner, a husband and a father. Let's not forget, a Bills fan! Let's Go! From a successful military career to taking steps upon exit to create a foundation of excellence, he is THAT guy!

  • OTOS w/Mike Abrams
    I joined FourBlock as a Career Readiness Instructor almost 5 years ago when the organization decided to expand to the Tampa area. It took only a few moments on the phone with CSM (R) Roger Roley to instantly know that it was something I wanted to do. I sit down to discuss, with FourBlock founder Mike Abrams, his transition and how the vision of FourBlock came to reality. It has impacted the lives of so many Service Members in transition, and it will continue to do so for decades to come! He is truly humble and is always looking out for others. I'm excited to talk to him to find out what he is doing, On The Other Side.

    It was truly an honor to spend some time with the SEAC and get his perspective on transition.
