Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryMovement isn't just about physical fitness—it's brain medicine. This eye-opening conversation with PJ Glassey, founder of X-Gym and creator of the brain type test, reveals why your fitness journey begins in your mind, not your muscles.As a military brat born into an Air Force family, PJ's journey from psychology student to fitness pioneer led him to a groundbreaking discovery: exercise protocols must match your unique brain wiring to be effective. His multi-protocol approach challenges the brain through seven different movement techniques, preventing adaptation and fostering neurological growth alongside physical fitness.The most compelling revelation? Movement delivers oxygen to the brain—the number one defense against cognitive decline. PJ shares how his mother's battle with early-onset Alzheimer's drove him to research brain science, ultimately discovering that dementia can be slowed, stopped, and sometimes reversed through proper movement. For those in Blue Zones who routinely live past 100 with sharp minds, consistent daily movement is their secret.Traditional fitness wisdom gets thoroughly debunked as PJ explains why "calories in, calories out" fails the human experience. Four thousand calories of Twinkies creates fat storage while the same caloric amount of broccoli might trigger fat loss—proving food quality trumps quantity. For the 55% of Americans consuming ultra-processed foods, inflammation makes movement painful and thinking cloudy, creating a vicious cycle of inactivity and cognitive decline.Whether you're battling cravings, seeking motivation, or concerned about brain health, PJ offers practical solutions including his favorite "tapping technique" that short-circuits negative neural pathways. His message is clear: start with small, consistent movement rather than overwhelming lifestyle overhauls.Ready to rewire your brain through movement?

Send us a textDr. Amanda Zeine never planned to join the military — but her path led her from ROTC to becoming a pediatrician and Army flight surgeon, serving two deployments overseas in Afghanistan and Iraq. After sustaining a traumatic brain injury, Amanda faced the devastating reality that she could no longer practice medicine.In this powerful conversation, she opens up about the struggles of losing her identity, rebuilding her life, and finding purpose in unexpected ways. Today, she's the author of Hot Mess to Wellness and the middle grade series The Cul-de-sac Kids, creating stories that fill a gap for military children.Join us as Amanda shares her journey of resilience, reinvention, and the courage to keep moving forward when life doesn't go as planned.Amanda's Bio:Dr. Zeine was born and raised in a small town in Central Illinois. As a child, she dreamed of becoming a doctor and, after high school, attended Illinois State University while participating in the ROTC program. She graduated in 2002 with a B.S. in science. After graduating as a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine in 2007, she attended her pediatric residency with the United States Army at Tripler Army Medical Center.

While serving as a flight surgeon, she was deployed twice. In December 2018, Dr. Zeine sustained a traumatic brain injury. After an eleven-year career as a physician, she lost her identity when she could no longer practice effectively as a physician. It was then that she wrote her first book Hot Mess to Wellness. Being a pediatrician in the Army, she noted a lack of books for older military brats.

205 - Harnessing Military Brat Lessons In this episode, we talk about Harris Faulkner's book Nine Rules of Engagement, where she shares life lessons gleaned from growing up in a military family. Faulkner reflects on how military values such as resilience, teamwork, and integrity have shaped her approach to personal success. These principles are not just for soldiers but can be applied to everyday life to achieve success, overcome challenges, and develop inner strength.

Faulkner encourages finding people who have your back and nurture mutual trust. Overcoming Demons: Faulkner's rule on dealing with personal demons stands out. Whether they are habits or internal struggles, facing them head-on is essential for growth. She shares personal stories about how confronting her own shortcomings led to progress. Takeaways:This episode underlines the importance of personal integrity, readiness, and teamwork. The key to success lies in understanding your mission, staying ready to act, and always maintaining strong personal relationships.

Our guest this week is Madelyne Paulk, the Marketing and Communications Manager at Jet It. I recently met Madelyne at an aviation conference, and I was drawn to how genuine, professional, and personable she is. Moments after speaking with her, I immediately knew she would be a great guest to feature on this podcast, and her perspective on diversity and inclusion would be valuable to the audience. Madelyne had some reservations initially because she was new to aviation, which was precisely why her story was important to share with you.Madelyne started her career in aviation with Jet It in 2020 after completing her master's degree program. With little knowledge of the industry, she took a chance and started as a Marketing Intern. Since then, Madelyne has worked her way up to Marketing Manager, where she is able to lead and guide marketing efforts to build brand awareness. Passionate about service and DE&I, Madelyne volunteers with the RedTail Flight Academy helping them plan their inaugural graduation ceremony and consulting on their marketing efforts. Outside of aviation, she also sits on the Lowcountry Advisory Board for Multiplying Good, a national nonprofit focused on elevating public service and empowering the next generation of servant leaders.

Chris's mom, Yun Cha, and dad met at the grocery shop that she and her sister owned nearby to the US military base. After years of moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.After time, trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home, inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things. If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.Chris's theatrical work, slightly on pause because of the pandemic: "Odd Lot "Improv Company and "Savannah Shakers" Shakespeare Theatre Company Podcast: "The Most Haunted City on Earth" -the telling of ghosts stories around Savannah.

He has released seven full-length albums with various bands, including https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_lRbqGuNlw (Light Fires), and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VArVTO0OB9I (Regina Gently). A former member of the group https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3Vca2JLG_o (Hidden Cameras), Reg has also sung is also sung with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrV14ujN4pw (Broken Social Scene) and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G-cqAehehA (Owen Pallett). Intriguingly he also had a cameo in the film https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSvrb9h2huc (Shortbus), which this year sees a rerelease. Reg had a nomadic upbringing. With a military pilot father, he grew up in both Germany and Canada. Eventually settling in the small town of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taC9a7gdvto (Guelph) he found himself surrounded by music, not least because of the indie-celebrating festival, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillside_Festival (Hillside). Eventually releasing his own music, he worked with many different bands and guises including the highly popular Hidden Cameras. He has a https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Farts-crafts.ca%2Fartists%2Fgentleman-reg.html&psig=AOvVaw2SPN3ChHPxa2gy6Tcc9HBc&ust=1644938109762000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCLjmu5C-__UCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD (striking look) with white hair and pale skin, and eventually learned to embrace people's wrong assumption that he was albino. And as the effeminate kid in school, from an early age he learned to roll with is Otherness. Gentleman Reg embraced online living during the pandemic and found himself not only entertaining his old audience but swathes of new people who never usually visited bars. He is an advocate of the alternative side of the queer scene, and this was a natural extension of that, reaching audiences for whom mainstream queer living mostly ignored.

Kevin lived there most of my life. Kevin found an interest in art and programming through the desire to make video games. Videogames were his first true hobby Kevin focused more on art throughout high school after dabbling with programming because he felt it was too difficult. Kevin eventually decided to shift over to finance because of the promise of big dollars and decided to get a degree in accounting because the local university didn't have a finance degree However, he hated accounting and didn't feel competent. Kevin started working at a hotel in the meanwhile. He then taught himself programming at the hotel while working the night shift. He then took a year off of work to focus on programming full time. Kevin eventually got a job in the industry after tons of applications.

Imagine giving birth to a new baby at 21 years old and then being diagnosed with a brain tumor. What now? This is where support comes in. This is when Military Leaders are supposed to be at their best for you. This support is what we call "Taking care of your people". Anything less than that is what we call "Piss poor Leadership". Shaton Evans, Master Sergeant in the US Air Force, wife, and mother of 3, shares her story of defying naysayers and overcoming adversity. As a Military Brat, and wanting to follow in her father's footsteps, she had the desire to serve her country. However, as a young Airman and new mother, an unfortunate diagnosis threatened it all. When they told her she couldn't, that she wouldn't or shouldn't… she did. Although Shaton struggled with illness and multiple injuries, she persevered and proved that she belonged. She found her passion in leading and mentoring individuals from all walks of life; ensuring that they never had to deal with what she encountered.
