"It’s an interesting transition going from having everything taken care of for you to out on your own in the civilian world in the matter of a few days. The challenges are extremely steep, you don’t have anyone to rely on, and you don’t entirely know what to do. The only thing I really knew is that this was my opportunity to shine and I couldn’t quit and I couldn’t back down. Giving this my all in the early stages, I’d work seven days a week from roughly 7AM to 11PM at a Starbucks in order to maximize the amount of time I’d learn and grow I could achieve in a day.

Tyler Ornstein loved the taste and smell of coffee from his first sip at 5 years old. But his father couldn’t tolerate it

because it upset his stomach. One day, Tyler asked him if he could make a coffee that both of them could drink.

So Tyler’s dad, Ian, a genius bio-chemist, tinkered quietly behind the scenes until he did what no university

research lab or mega-corporation could do— he created acid–

free coffee that anyone can drink without digestive disruption.

Judi was a highly successful CPA and corporate finance executive, who

unknown to her co-workers, lived in terror of the night and the possibility

of sexual assault. Happily married with children, her fears made life a

modern-day nightmare, but worse—she had no idea why? There was

nothing in her own personal background that would warrant this near

constant state of fear.

Through this, Judi was written a book and is sharing her story.
