I think the title speaks for itself. Why is today's episode the shortest episode ever? Listen and find out!

In this episode, I post an update on the fundraiser I'm doing.

I talk about change and why it's good, especially if you aren't happy in life. I even attempt to change up the same boring layout I've been doing for the past 20 episodes!

I got to interview Jason, an Army Veteran, and talk about his transition experience. I thought his story was cool and his specific experience transitioning was unique. I think it really helped him hit the ground running as a civilian to accomplish what he's trying to do in life.

I also covered a really cool hobby I think you guys will find cool.

In this episode, we look at our transitions in life and how we can learn from other's mistakes. I quote Otto von Bismarck and talk about how this affects the Tesla vs. Edison dispute.

For the interview portion, I got to interview Cristie, one of the first Navy FMF females out there... If you don't know what an FMF corpsman is, they are the Devil Docs on the battlefield... The ONLY Sailors respected by Marines. I got to listen to Cristie tell her story and hear how about how she found her way to entrepreneurship!

And last but not least, the hobby... What's next???

In this episode, we look at "the bigger picture". We look at a quote I heard and one that really got me thinking about the roles we play in our lives.

I got to interview Steve, an Army Veteran, and owner of Wackadoo Brewing out in Colorado Springs. Steve is a great guy who has found his passion with Wackadoo. He's got an awesome story!

I talk about another interesting hobby!

In episode 18, we look at conversational tactics... Not to be mistaken with Verbal Judo. We look at how to successfully employ these tactics so that everyone walks away happy with the end results.

I also got to interview Dylan, an Army National Guardsman, as he talks about his experiences while in the military and how he was able to relate to his troops better after some of those experiences. He also talks about how he helps others going through hard times.

And of course, let's see what weird and interesting hobby I talk about next!

In Episode 17, we look at what it takes to turn a dream into reality. I talk about what I believe it takes to make a project successful.

I also go over my experience with ideas and projects and what I've learned in the 3 years I've been trying to be successful.

In the interview portion I get to talk to Aaron Quinonez, a Marine Corp Veteran, about his story. Aaron is doing a LOT in the world right now and he really surprised me in the interview. Go check it out and check out his app: qactual.com.

In Episode 16 we look at success and what it means to be a successful Veteran. I even give my opinion, or my view on success (feel free to fast forward).

I also got to Interview Grace, a Navy Veteran and someone I served with in Norfolk. She runs Down Range Equestrian and joined the military to understand her customers better. She was also able to start another business from a passion she had. I had fun catching up with her and learning about her businesses. She's doing great!
