As a military veteran or first responder, you need to be planning and implementing strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. In this episode of the Transition Drill Podcast, former Navy Search and Rescue (SAR) swimmer, Kat Apostolina, reflects on the mental and physical challenges of her military training and career. Despite being the sole female in a class of 20, she graduated with just six others, proving that mental resilience was key to success. In her 7 years of service, she had deployments to Afghanistan and Kuwait. An injury sustained during a training exercise ultimately led to her departure from the Navy, but she channeled her passion for fitness, not just to avoid surgery, but into a new career as a personal trainer, leveraging her military experience and a degree in sports psychology. Based in San Diego, she offers personalized functional fitness training, emphasizing the mental aspect of physical health. Her advice to veterans transitioning out of the military is to proactively engage with the VA for support and to use their benefits, such as the GI Bill, to pursue education or certifications that can open new career paths. Her journey from SAR swimmer to fitness trainer illustrates the power of adaptability and the importance of mental strength in overcoming life's obstacles.
