This week on Unbroken Veterans, we sit down with Ron Hernandez, Army Veteran and Founder of Moving Veterans Forward, to hear his powerful story of service, transition, and finding a new mission after the military. Ron shares his journey from joining the Army, serving in Panama, the Balkans, and Iraq, to being injured during deployment and facing the challenges of transitioning out of the military. After struggling with losing the identity and purpose that came with wearing the uniform, Ron found a new way to continue serving — helping fellow veterans rebuild their lives through Moving Veterans Forward. His story is one of resilience, leadership, overcoming adversity, and a reminder that the mission doesn't have to end when the uniform comes off.

Content Warning & Disclaimer Please proceed with caution. This episode may be highly triggering for survivors of abuse and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Anne offered to tell her story to us. An army veteran, Anne found herself falling for Peter, who was also an army vet. They had a lot in common, so striking up a relationship was very easy. There are many facets about Peter that were appealing, but when he became angry about something, he turned into a whole different person. Not only in his behavior, but also the look on his face, in particular, his eyes. He promised he would not allow himself to become that angry again. But he was not able to do that. Although a very strong person in many ways, Anne made the mistake of allowing Peter into (and taking control of) her life. This took time to happen, but later had the appearance of an overall plan. There were many unfortunate decisions made by Anne, but they were attempts at making Peter more comfortable and increasing his self esteem. We ask ourselves how could a smart woman like Anne allow this to happen, but she was a good person who was trying hard to lift Peter up in life. He took full advantage of her good acts. Like with each of our survivor stories, there are many lessons to be learned from hearing Anne's story. If you're in an abusive relationship, dealing with trauma from childhood, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers validation, insight, and hope. Host: Bill Mitchell If you're experiencing intimate partner abuse, coercive control, or narcissistic abuse—or if you suspect someone you care about is—Riel's story offers critical perspective on spotting red flags early, breaking free, and finding support.

Some battles follow you long after you leave the military. On this episode of The ToosDay Crüe, hosts Jake Holland and Stephen LaMonica sit down with US Army Veteran Tia May, a telecommunications systems operator who joined the Army in 2001 and faced challenges that pushed her mental health to the edge. During her time in service, Tia experienced disrespect from fellow soldiers and constant body size shaming. The emotional toll built up over time, leading her to turn to alcohol to cope. Nightmares, anxiety, and the weight of unresolved trauma eventually brought her close to a breaking point. But her story didn't end there. Tia found an unexpected path toward healing—motorsports. What started as an outlet became a lifeline. Getting behind the wheel gave her focus, adrenaline, and a sense of control that helped quiet the chaos she was battling internally. Now, Tia is using motorsports as a platform for mental health advocacy, helping raise awareness and encouraging veterans to find their own paths toward healing. Her mission is simple but powerful: get veterans out on the track, open the conversation about mental health, and prove that recovery is possible. Life in the Army as a telecommunications operator The mental health challenges many soldiers face but rarely talk about Coping with trauma, nightmares, and alcohol The breaking point that forced change How motorsports became therapy Using racing to help other veterans find healing

This conversation with Healey was so candid and we talked about so many different aspects of motherhood and mental health.I think my guest, Healey Ikerd, says it best herself: "I have written a workbook called Changing Your Feelings - A Workbook for Anxiety and Worry, and a book of Christian poetry and reflections called Celebrate the Day. I have also written two children's books, The Red Ball - A Story of Friendship and Forgiveness and The Worried Little Goat.I am the host of a solo podcast called Healthy & Redeemed. My goal with the podcast is to help Christians improve their emotional health to better reflect living like Jesus.I have experienced so much in life that I feel like I could really talk about anything, but I enjoy talking most about becoming more holy for the glory of God through reading the Bible. That, of course, includes being as mentally healthy as possible. My own failings as an early Christian were justifying a lot of my choices because I did not know the Bible well enough to argue the justifications in my own mind. Now, it is my passion to help others understand healthy thoughts and choices through Biblical principles."About Our Guest: Healey IkerdHealey Ikerd is a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and a Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor. She has earned a Certificate in Ministry from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary. She is a U.S. Army Veteran and has worked in the mental health field for over 17 years.

On this episode of the Wood Care Podcast, Caleb sits down with Jeff Konopack of Deck Medic to talk about building a scalable deck care business. Jeff began his career in exterior painting before transitioning into specialized deck restoration, where he quickly realized the importance of creating systems, processes, and data-driven decision-making to grow the business. Over time, those systems helped transform the operation into a franchise model, allowing proven methods and processes to be shared with other operators. In this episode, we discuss: • Transitioning from general exterior painting to deck restoration • Creating repeatable business systems and quoting processes • Employee retention strategies in a seasonal industry • Commission-based team leadership and accountability • Building long-term customer relationships through maintenance services Jeff also shares why communication is the most important skill for contractors—whether it's managing customer expectations or building trust with employees. For Jeff, the goal isn't just landing a single job, but building long-term clients who return for maintenance every few years. He also encourages contractors to focus on building brand equity through five-star reviews, continuous education, and networking within the industry.

What does it take to survive warzones, near-death experiences, and come back with a story powerful enough to inspire others? On this episode of The MisFitNation Show, host Rich LaMonica sits down with US Army Veteran Dean Davidson—author, adventurer, and leader forged through some of the most dangerous environments on earth. Dean spent nearly 15 years supporting Department of Defense operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, working alongside special operations forces and mentoring Afghan Commandos. His journey includes surviving mortar attacks, a chlorine gas SVBIED attack, and a life-altering pursuit by insurgents that resulted in severe spinal injuries. Now, he channels those real-world experiences into gripping military thriller fiction, including his debut novel “The Amir”, with his upcoming series Code Name CHAOS on the way.

What does real leadership look like when everything falls apart? In this powerful episode of The ToosDay Crüe, hosts Jake Holland and Stephen LaMonica sit down with Omar Ritter, a West Point graduate, Bronze Star recipient, and former corporate executive who has led both soldiers in combat and billion-dollar operations in the financial world. From the battlefields of Iraq to boardrooms at major institutions, Omar's journey is one of resilience, transformation, and truth.

4-7-26 Tonight we're getting back together with Carlos Herrera, owner and Meadmaker at Texas Longhouse Meadery in Wylie, Texas. Carlos is the owner and mead maker of Texas Longhouse Meadery, where Nordic inspiration and Texas craft meet in the glass. With over two dozen awards and a passion for building community through mead, Carlos is also the President of the Texas Mead Association, working to grow the mead industry and bring more people into the Longhouse. Carlos, an Army Veteran, a Paramedic, and a Diplomatic Security Specialist, started learning how to make mead from an outgoing mentor. After learning the basics from his mentor, Carlos was injured at work and was sent home to recover. While home recovering from multiple surgeries, he set out to improve his new hobby. After many hours reading, researching, and experimenting Carlos fell in love with mead and really started to hone his craft of mead making. Fast forward several years and Carlos was really making waves in his new endeavors by entering many Mead competitions, winning awards, and giving his fellow competing mead makers quality feedback as a BJCP (Beer Judge Certification Program) Certified Mead Judge.

When a U.S. Army veteran was arrested on conspiracy charges for his role in an anti-ICE protest in Spokane, Washington, it was the first time an American had faced those charges in connection with the protests. Some legal experts saw it as an escalation in efforts to suppress and criminalize First Amendment rights. In collaboration with the Pulitzer Center, Aaron Glantz reports.

Shifting the narrative from PTSD as a lifelong "sentence" to a treatable condition. Simone explains why traditional talk therapy is often only half the battle.Key Information & Time Stamps01:34 Simone recounts her experience with Military Sexual Trauma (MST) and the systemic lack of medical care and justice that followed her assault.04:08 A deep dive into how suppressed mental distress shows up as physical symptoms, including sleeping disorders and chronic body tension.07:19 Simone discusses the research-backed truth that PTSD is not a "life sentence" and can be successfully treated if faced head-on.11:58 An honest look at the use of alcohol as a "crutch" to numb trauma and the importance of recognizing when a coping mechanism has become toxic.15:43 How transitioning to physical exercise and "positive addictions" provides the necessary structure for long-term sobriety and healing.17:31 Why talk therapy often reaches a plateau and the necessity of "body work"—such as martial arts, massage, and Reiki—to move trauma out of the physical frame.21:59 Simone explains why dogs are uniquely qualified to help sexual assault survivors regain a sense of safety and trust when human interaction feels overwhelming.28:50 The ethical and financial benefits of rescuing shelter dogs and training them as service animals for survivors on a budget.Whether you are a veteran, a survivor of sexual assault, or someone struggling with the physical manifestations of trauma, this episode offers a roadmap for moving from victim to self-healer.Simone's Bio Simone is a Army Veteran, author, public speaker and PTSD expert.

IntroductionHow does a distillery in North Carolina begun by an Army veteran have most of their products become kosher-certified and go on to win many medals at spirits competitions? That's something we're going to explore on this 188th episode of The Jewish Drinking Show, featuring Bruce Tyler, Weldon Mills Distillery's co-owner and manager, along with Ari Cohen, Weldon Mills Distillery's operations and brand ambassador.Biography of GuestAlong with his business partner, Michael Hinderliter, Bruce Tyler established Weldon Mills Distillery in January of 2019. Through their hard work and perseverance, they pushed through the COVID-19 pandemic and quickly turned the company into the most awarded distillery in North Carolina. Weldon Mills Distillery is rapidly growing, and currently has over 36 product lines including Bourbon, Whiskey, Vodka, Gin, and Tequila. Weldon Mills has added a second location in downtown Durham, NC, and is in the process of restoring a historic mansion as a Bed and Breakfast. Bruce has moved to distillery operations full-time and reluctantly practices law on limited occasions.Prior to engaging in establishing the distillery, he is a retired 27-year U.S. Army Veteran who served as a Combat Arms Soldier, Military Police Officer, and a Judge Advocate General Officer.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief takes listeners for a ride to San Antonio to sit down with Tim Crofton, the distiller behind Ranger Creek and a fellow Army Veteran. This episode goes beyond the glass. It is about service, transition, discipline, and building something meaningful after the uniform comes off. Founded in 2010, Ranger Creek was one of the first brewery and distillery combinations operating under one roof in Texas. They were putting barrels away before Texas whiskey had national momentum and before American single malt became a headline. They built this brand in South Texas heat that does not forgive shortcuts. Barrels expand, contract, and mature aggressively. You either stay disciplined or you lose control of the process. Ranger Creek chose discipline. Tim and Big Chief talk about how military service shapes leadership inside a distillery and how that mindset carries into daily operations. As fellow veterans, they also discuss the Department of Defense SkillBridge program and Ranger Creek's role in helping transitioning service members find purpose in the craft industry. Giving veterans a pathway from service to skilled trade is not just smart. It is leadership in action. The first pour of the episode was State and Republic Wheated Bourbon. Wheat brings a rounded sweetness and approachability, but Texas oak still drives structure and backbone. It represents the steady foundation of Ranger Creek's bourbon program and the control required to age whiskey in a climate that accelerates everything. Next came the Distiller's Vault Rye Whiskey. This pour shifted the tone. Rye carries natural spice and intensity, and Texas maturation amplifies it. Black pepper, baking spice, oak, and heat layered together with authority. The Vault series allows Tim to showcase barrels with bold character while still maintaining balance. This rye had grit. It demanded attention. In the second half, the conversation moved into American single malt, a category Ranger Creek has been serious about long before it gained mainstream attention. Texas Landmark The Original No. 2 American Single Malt delivered roasted malt, dark chocolate notes, and structure built for Texas aging. It is confident, direct, and distinctly Texan. Then came the 307 Tricentennial Series Single Malt. Aged in apple brandy barrels and then finished for 4.5 days in an Amburana barrel, it became something layered and memorable. The apple brandy influence brought fruit and sweetness, while the Amburana added cinnamon, baking spice, and warmth. Apple strudel in a glass. That 4.5 day finish required precision. Too long and it dominates. Just right and it transforms the whiskey. We closed with the Texas Landmark Cask Strength Mesquite Smoked Single Malt. This was the exclamation point of the episode. Mesquite smoke is bold and unmistakably Texas, but here it was controlled and intentional. The smoke wrapped around the malt instead of overpowering it. At cask strength, it delivered depth, intensity, and a finish that stayed with you. It might be the best single malt I have ever had. This episode is about Ranger Creek's history, evolution, and the work behind every barrel. It is about service, transition, heat, discipline, and building legacy in Texas. Good whiskey. Hard work. Real leadership. Take the ride.

On this episode of The ToosDay Crüe, hosts Jake and Stephen welcome U.S. Army Veteran Richard Spegal, a Pennsylvania National Guard officer, former 82nd Airborne soldier, and acclaimed author of dark fantasy and paranormal fiction. Richard is the creative force behind worlds like Eternal Nights and the Wolves & Ravens trilogy—stories filled with magic, mystery, moral risk, and the shadows most fiction avoids. Frustrated by adult readers being underserved in fantasy and paranormal genres, Richard set out to write the books he wanted to read—stories that don't sugarcoat consequences and force characters to confront hard truths. After choosing family over continued active combat service, Richard now balances military leadership, fatherhood to four daughters, and a writing career rooted in myth, folklore, and lived experience. His storytelling explores identity, sacrifice, and how much truth can survive in darkness. This conversation dives into service, creativity, fatherhood, faith in imagination, and why fiction matters—especially when it dares to ask the questions we avoid out loud.

In this episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes U.S. Army Veteran Jane Babcock, a retired Sergeant First Class and former nationally accredited County Veterans Service Officer (CVSO) who has spent her life serving those who served. Jane's military career spans more than 21 years, holding five MOSs, serving on Active Duty, Army Reserve, and completing multiple periods of mobilized service—earning her four DD-214s. Her experience includes working in SCIF environments, supporting underwater acoustic systems development, and serving both on land and at sea. After retiring in 2004 due to non-combat injuries—during a time when transition programs like TAPS didn't exist—Jane faced firsthand the gaps in veteran transition awareness. She was never informed about a Medical Board or VA care options. That experience became fuel for her mission. As a CVSO, Jane went on to file well over 1,000 VA disability claims, helping veterans navigate a system she knows intimately—both professionally and personally. Today, she continues reaching and teaching veterans about the benefits they earned through service. This episode is a must-watch for veterans, families, advocates, and anyone who wants to understand the realities of transition, VA benefits, and why informed advocacy saves lives. Connect with Jane here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/janebabcock/   

On this episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes U.S. Army Veteran Manny Vera, a former Military Police Soldier who served nearly a decade in uniform and continues his mission of service far beyond it.

Today, he serves as a Regional Manager with the Travis Manion Foundation, helping veterans, survivors, and inspired civilians develop character, leadership, and lifelong service. Driven by a deep love of learning, Manny credits open-minded leadership, continuous growth, and authentic connection as the foundation of his success—both in the Army and in civilian life. Currently pursuing his MBA at the University of Florida and volunteering on the board of a local veterans association, Manny represents what it means to live a life of purpose after the uniform comes off. This conversation dives into leadership, mental health, servant leadership, and why learning never stops. Connect here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/manny-vera/
