In episode 251 of the Transition Drill Podcast, explores identity, resilience, and rebuilding after public scrutiny for veterans and first responders navigating career disruption, reputation loss, and life after service. You'll hear Kwesi Millington on what happens when one moment changes everything, and what it takes to rebuild purpose, identity, and a future when the career you expected disappears.Former RCMP officer and now resilience keynote speaker Kwesi Millington shares a story that starts far before policing and goes far beyond the incident that made international headlines.Raised in Toronto by a single mother after emigrating from Trinidad and Tobago, Kwesi describes a childhood that was ordinary by his standards. No clear career calling. No lifelong dream of becoming a police officer. He moved through school, completed a Bachelor of Commerce with a focus in finance, worked office and government jobs, and felt disconnected from the life he imagined for himself. Then one moment changed direction. Watching a police officer while walking a strike line, he realized he wanted work that put him outside, serving people and doing something that felt meaningful.That decision led him into the RCMP. He trained in Regina, Saskatchewan, entered frontline policing in British Columbia, and expected to build a long career. Instead, only a few years into service, a call at Vancouver International Airport became the defining event of his life. Kwesi walks through that night, the death that followed, the public reaction, the viral footage, internal conflict, investigations, public inquiry, and the long legal aftermath that eventually ended his policing career.But this conversation doesn't stop there.Kwesi talks openly about moral injury, accountability, identity collapse, incarceration, and the reality of trying to re-enter society carrying a criminal record and public history. He reflects on the jobs that never called back, rebuilding through personal training, and discovering that growth sometimes starts where status ends.What emerged next wasn't a return to who he was. Through fitness, Toastmasters, communication, and years of rebuilding, Kwesi found a different mission. Today he speaks to audiences on resilience, mindset, accountability, and navigating life after adversity.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:GRND Collective: Premium, veteran-owned sportswear built for those who show up, outwork the excuses, and give 100%.

What happens when you do exactly what you were trained to do, but the outcome turns tragic, and you are the one who pays the price?In this powerful episode of The Fire You Carry, Nole and Kevin sit down with Kwesi Millington, a former member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). Kwesi opens up about a fateful night at the Vancouver Airport in 2007 that ended in a tragic suspect death due to excited delirium. Despite being cleared of any operational wrongdoing by multiple forces, the fallout and a grueling public inquiry years later led to a shocking perjury conviction over minor memory inconsistencies. Kwesi went from wearing the iconic Red Serge to sitting in a maximum-security prison cell.Kwesi shares his raw, unfiltered journey through moral injury, deep depression, and severe PTSD. He reveals the exact turning point where he chose to stop looking at what broke him and start focusing on how he could serve others. From tutoring fellow inmates to becoming an international keynote speaker on resilience, Kwesi's story is a masterclass in his mother's golden rule: “It's not your reality that matters, it's your response.”Whether you are a first responder fighting burnout, someone wrestling with a lost identity, or just trying to navigate a dark season, this episode provides actionable strategies to build an unbreakable mindset.Big thank you to My Epic and Facedown Records for the use of their song "Hail" in our podcast!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz2RZThURTU&ab_channel=FacedownRecordsLearn more about Kwesi.https://kwesimillington.com/The Fire You Carry on YouTube.Sign up for a class at The Fire Up Program!https://www.fireupprogram.com/programsThe Fire Up Progam video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I__ErPW46Ec&t=12s&ab_channel=FireUpProgramThe Fire You Carry Instagram.https://www.instagram.com/thefireyoucarry/Donate to The Fire Up Program.https://www.fireupprogram.com/donateThe Fire Up Program Instagram.https://www.instagram.com/fireup_program/Kevin's Instagram.https://www.instagram.com/kevinpwelsh/?hl=en

How long would it actually take your organization to recover every endpoint after a major cyber incident? Recording live from IGEL Now And Next in Miami, I sat down with James Millington to explore a question that most businesses think they've answered, but rarely have. Because when you move beyond theory and start mapping out the real process, the numbers tell a very different story. James shared examples from real organizations that tried to calculate recovery at scale. One estimated it would take over 5,000 person-hours to rebuild their estate. Another believed they could recover quickly, until they realized the scale of their environment made that assumption unrealistic. It raises a deeper question. Are we focusing too much on recovery and not enough on resilience?  The conversation quickly moved into what James calls the "endpoint recovery gap." While most organizations have invested heavily in data center resilience, failover environments, and backup strategies, far fewer have a clear plan for reconnecting users when endpoints are compromised. And without a working endpoint, even the most advanced infrastructure becomes inaccessible.  We also explored why so many organizations continue to rely on reimaging devices as a primary recovery strategy, despite the time, complexity, and operational disruption it creates. In many cases, it's not just slow. It's impractical at scale. And perhaps more concerning, some organizations still admit to having no defined plan at all. One of the most memorable moments in the conversation came through a simple analogy. For years, we've been carrying the weight of outdated endpoint strategies, even though the solution has been sitting in front of us. Just like it took thousands of years to put wheels on a suitcase, the shift toward simpler, more resilient models often requires a moment of realization before change actually happens. As application delivery continues to move toward SaaS, DaaS, and cloud environments, the role of the endpoint is also being redefined. Analysts are now calling for a move toward immutable, non-persistent endpoints that reduce attack surface and enable faster recovery. But as James points out, the real challenge is not awareness. It's an action. As organizations continue to invest in security, infrastructure, and AI, one question remains: Are we still planning for recovery from failure, or are we finally designing systems that avoid it in the first place? What do you think, are businesses ready to rethink endpoint strategy, or are we still carrying the baggage of the past?

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to Aaron Dunn from Millington, NJ. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 11:17-22. But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part, for there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized. When you come together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat. For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal. One goes hungry, another gets drunk. What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not. — 1 Corinthians 11:17-22 Paul now shifts to corruption in worship. Up to this point, he has addressed structure, symbols, and design. Now he confronts something more troubling — selfishness. The Corinthians were gathering—but their gatherings were doing harm, not good. Instead of unity, there was division. Instead of reverence, there was disregard. Instead of waiting for one another, some rushed ahead while others were left humiliated and hungry. Paul's words are sharp. Essentially he says: "I do not commend you." You see, it is possible to go to church and grieve worship. The issue was not that the church met or lacked structure. The issue in this text was that they treated the Lord's Supper as a private party for the elite rather than a shared proclamation for all believers. The meal meant to display unity instead exposed inequality. This is why Paul says, "It is not the Lord's Supper that you eat." They were eating bread and drinking wine—but they were not honoring the Lord. Worship had become self-focused rather than God-focused. And when worship turns inward, it stops looking upward. Paul reminds them that the church does not gather to satisfy appetites, assert status, or showcase freedom. The church gathers to proclaim Christ's sacrifice and to embody his self-giving love. Besides, at the cross, no one is elevated. No one is excluded. No one is overlooked. But the Corinthians were establishing social divisions at the very meal meant to erase them. Paul's warning still speaks. When worship centers on preference, presentation, convenience, or entitlement, it ceases to be worship at all. True worship begins before we ever walk into the room. It is a settled decision to turn our attention away from ourselves and toward Christ—to come ready to listen, ready to repent, ready to remember his sacrifice, and ready to love the people around us. So the next time you gather with the church, practice this discipline: consciously turn your mind away from what you like or dislike, away from the atmosphere or execution, and fix your attention on Christ alone. Let him be the focus. Anything less may look religious—but it does not look like Jesus. DO THIS: Before you gather for worship, pause and intentionally turn your attention toward Christ. Ask God to help you lay aside preferences, distractions, and expectations so you can come ready to listen, repent, remember Christ's sacrifice, and love the people around you. ASK THIS: What typically captures my attention when I enter worship—and why? Where might I be more focused on experience, presentation, or preference than on Christ himself? How does remembering Christ's sacrifice reshape the way I view the people gathered around me? PRAY THIS: Lord Jesus, forgive me when I come to worship focused on myself rather than on you. Train my heart to fix its attention on your sacrifice, your presence, and your people. Help me enter worship with humility, gratitude, and love so that my worship truly honors you. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Jesus Paid It All (Worthy of The Price)"

Tate Is joined by Coach Kevin McMillan, head women's basketball coach at UT Martin, is joined by his long-time friend and Hall of Famer, Coach John Wild. Coach McMillan reflects on his unconventional start in coaching women's basketball, which began at the age of 23 when the head girls' coach at Millington, Ruth Ann Hicks, unexpectedly stepped down and recommended him for the position. Since then, McMillan has built an impressive career, including 435 high school wins and 307 wins during his 16-year tenure at UT Martin, the third-highest in OVC history. The coaches also discuss the evolving landscape of women's basketball, noting the dramatic improvements in skill level and athleticism over the last few decades. They delve into the impact of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) and the transfer portal, with Coach McMillan expressing his concerns about the shift toward financial motivations and the increasing role of agents in the recruiting process. Despite these changes, McMillan attributes much of his success to the "fundamental base of kids" in Tennessee, emphasizing their toughness and hard-nosed work ethic as a key driver of his team's achievements.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The guys open this episode with heartfelt farewells, showing love to Tisha and Denisse as they step away for personal reasons. Both sisters received flowers and well-wishes from the team. Congratulations go out to Captain Desmond K. Walker, honored with the FY26 Vice Admiral James Bond Stockdale Leadership Award, along with all other recipients. The crew also sends condolences to CMSAF David A. Flosi and family on the passing of his wife, Katy. Damon reflects on his experiences in Newport, Rhode Island and Millington, Tennessee during the CMC/COB course, while Aaron raises the question—is Memphis BBQ overrated? Damo shares a personal story about the Philadelphia Police Department entering his mother's home. The team acknowledges that social media clip production may slow due to their new command responsibilities, sparking a larger discussion: how can leaders realistically balance social media and deckplate leadership? The conversation ties into the Navy's updated social media policy and handbook, as well as CNO's latest “C-Note,” where he defines The Foundry. Hero of the Week returns with a spotlight on Private First Class Charles Ralph Johnson. Updates on the Angelina Resendiz case lead to a debate about the limits of invasive leadership. The crew tackles listener questions about rank privileges and a troubling report of a new mother being excluded from the CPO Initiation and Pinning Ceremony. Other hot topics include an Army dining hall with an “F” rating still serving meals, strategies to shift command culture in the face of widespread disciplinary issues, and Damon's surprise at the “Pick of the Week” segment. The episode closes with Aaron's Do Better: Attend a Military Ball.       Do you have a “Do Better” that you want us to review on a future episode?
