Lt Col Dan Rooney, an Air Force fighter pilot and a force for good. From humble beginnings above his garage, he founded The Folds of Honor Foundation to provide educational scholarships to the families of disabled or fallen military members, and, beginning in 2022, the mission was expanded to include first responders. In his new book, FLY INTO THE WIND: How to Harness Faith and Fearlessness on Your Ascent to Greatness, Lt Col Rooney demonstrates how we are all connected by God, and the path to fulfillment begins with changing ourselves to better one another. Lt Col Dan shares his faith in the concept of synchronicity and how chance and purpose allow God to bring people into our lives that shape us. He shares the incident that planted the seed of Folds of Honor in Lt Col Dan's mind and the moment he felt the hand of God on his shoulder calling him to do something more significant with his life. He also explains why he believes that all great leaders need to take that big step and have the courage to take action before they are ready, and surrender to a higher force. “Great leaders have got vision, and they've got humility.” - Lt Col Dan Rooney “Resistance isn't placed in our lives to keep us down.

Episode 157Because it's Memorial Day, we had to get our golf talk in. Dustin gives his thoughts on his recent trip to American Dunes in Grand Haven.Next topic was the Jamie Benn brain fart moment of cross checking Mark Stone in the jaw, leading to a 5-minute major plus a 2 game sussy. What on earth was the goal there? Although Dallas rallied for games 4 and 5, all signs point to a Florida vs Vegas Stanley Cup Final.Does Tkachuk continue his tear and bring home the Panthers' first Cup in franchise history? Or will Eichel get the sweet taste of a Stanley Cup victory, bringing Vegas their first Cup in franchise history? Either way, it will be an action-packed Final and we can't wait for it!!
