On this episode of the podcast I finally sit down and share the ugly, harsh, and hard to hear truth that is my story. However, as difficult as it to tell this story, it is what sparked and help create what is now WhatMakesUsFire.
Here, I am hoping to be what I have asked so many others to be on this show. Open, honest, and "naked" in the truth.
I do this in the hope that my story helps ignite someone else to take the first steps in becoming the best version of themselves.
Its a journey, are hard fought journey to becoming whole with who you are and who you truly want to be in this life. Through hardship, trauma, and stress we can truly become the greatest versions of ourselves if we just allow ourselves to grow and learn through them.
Hopefully, just maybe, my story can help you do just that.
This is my story, the story of what exactly WhatMakesUsFire is, and how the mission WILL change our world for the better.

On this episode of the podcast we have Mr. Brandon DeFoure. A career Firefighter and part-time Cop.
Brandon and I talk about what it is like for a young individual, such as himself, to enter into the Civil Service world at a young age, and how it effected him. Since Brandon started in the civil service at such a young age he seems to have a pretty good idea of what to expect, when it wasn't expected.

On this episode of the podcast we have Air Force Veteran, successful business owner, and author, Mr. Bob Taylor.
Bob's writing of From Service to Success is a cornerstone of The Patriot Promise™ Foundation, which he founded to help drive down the rate of suicides among veterans and to provide a clear path forward as our warfighters transition into a new mission and new purpose following their service. The Patriot Promise™ Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. The foundation is establishing non-profit ventures run 100% by veterans and offering veterans the ability to learn new skills in the workplace while also learning to enhance their lives through a training program based on the book. But, its first priority is to get 100,000 of From Service to Success into the hands of veterans through donations from the public.
