Why does that voice in your head wake you up at 3:00 AM telling you that everything's terrible? Why do we get stuck overthinking and feel anxious, angry, guilty, shameful, or even envious? There actually is a productive reason. I dug into the research and that voice and negative emotion might actually be good for us, if we use them correctly. I invited the world's leading expert on controlling your thoughts and emotions, Dr. Ethan Kross, to give us tools we can use today to feel better.
A 20 year Navy veteran explains how “doing hard things” builds resilience, leadership, and purpose after military service.Episode DescriptionWhat happens after the mission ends?After twenty years in the U.S. Navy, Shaun Bemis faced the same challenge many veterans do.

From intelligence analysis to global business strategy, he explains how the same mindset that works in high stakes environments can also drive success in life and work.This episode is about resilience, leadership, and the discipline of putting one foot in front of the other when the path ahead is uncertain.In this conversation• Why Shaun believes in deliberately doing hard things• Translating military skills into civilian success• The mindset that helped scale a company from 15 to 60 countries• How endurance racing builds mental toughness• The leadership power of asking better questions• What Navy SEAL training teaches about mastery and fundamentals• The “Left Foot, Right Foot” philosophy for overcoming obstaclesConnect with Shaun BemisLinkedIn: @shaunbemisInstagram: @shaunbrunningConnect with Kevin McNultyX @kevinspeaks2uLinkedIn @kevinmcnultyspeaksFacebook @kevinrichardmcnultyInstagram @kevinmcnultyspeaksLinkTree https://linktr.ee/kevinmcnultyHashtags#GrowYourself #VeteranTransition #MilitaryToCivilian #PersonalGrowth #Leadership #Resilience #PurposeAfterService #NavyVeteran #FractionalCOO #TeamRWB #LifeTransition #DoHardThings #KevinMcNulty #ShaunBemis

“I will always tell the American people the truth. Pesticides and herbicides are toxic by design, engineered to kill living organisms” writes Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Secretary of the HHS. “Unfortunately, our agricultural system depends heavily on these chemicals… If these inputs disappeared overnight, crop yields would fall, food prices would surge, and America would experience a massive loss of farms… The consequences would be disastrous.” MAHA is split over Kennedy's statement explaining President Trump's recent support for Bayer and their product Roundup (originally from Monsanto). Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is an herbicide that has been linked to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, was labeled “probably carcinogenic” by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, and is the subject of thousands of lawsuits. It is the most-used weedkiller in history. Remi Adeleke is a former Navy SEAL, filmmaker, and author.

☎️ Schedule a Business Evaluation Call with The Construction Leading Edge Team HERE EPISODE 434: There's a problem in your construction business right now that you've already identified — but haven't engaged with yet. A tough conversation with a client or employee, a financial trend you keep meaning to address, a hire you've been putting off. And every day you wait, it takes up more mental real estate. And that gap between recognizing a problem and actually engaging it is the breeding ground for fear, anxiety, and 2 a.m. wake-ups. In this episode of The Construction Leading Edge Podcast, I borrow a lesson straight from Navy SEAL tactics: the answer is in the room. The solution to the problem is inside the problem, so speculation, hesitation, and waiting for more information won't get you closer to solving it. I share 3 steps to stop standing outside the problem and start solving what's in front of you.

This episode of Transition Drill Podcast explores the long road from uncertainty to elite service for veterans and first responders navigating identity, leadership, and life after high-stakes careers.Retired Navy SEAL Chief David Swarts shares the realities of becoming a SEAL, the cost of leadership during wartime deployments, and what it takes to rebuild purpose after the job changes you.David Swarts grew up outside Cleveland, Ohio, in a working class household shaped by divorce, independence, and a lot of self-direction. College wasn't on his radar. Cars, restaurant work, and construction jobs were. But the environment around him began pulling people toward drugs and trouble, and he knew he needed a way out.That decision led him into the Navy in 1999, where he initially served as an aircraft mechanic attached to a carrier air wing. While working in naval aviation and deploying at sea, the desire to become a SEAL never left him. After completing his initial service commitment, he earned the opportunity to attend BUD/S and entered training during the height of the post-9/11 operational tempo.Swarts describes the intensity of that pipeline, including surviving Hell Week, setbacks in second phase, and the long road through advanced training. After graduating and completing the Special Forces (18 Delta) medic course, he reported to SEAL Team 10 during the most active years of the war in Iraq. He also served with Teams 2 and 5.From combat deployments in places like Fallujah and Afghanistan, to leadership roles within platoons, and an assignment to TRADET, Swarts experienced the relentless cycle of training, deployment, and responsibility that defines life in the teams. He reflects on mentorship, the culture of young SEAL platoons, and how leadership evolves from being one of the guys to becoming responsible for the team.The conversation also explores moments that reshaped his perspective. Becoming a father while deploying. Navigating the pressure of leadership as an LPO. And dealing with accusations of war crimes, twice, and investigations that followed combat operations overseas.Through it all, Swarts offers a candid look at growth inside the SEAL teams, the mistakes that shape him, as well as leaders, and the realities that come with dedicating your life to service.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 CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10

What happens when a sitting U.S. Senator, who's also a former Navy SEAL, walks in and breaks down the Iran conflict with the kind of clarity you only get from someone who's lived the GWOT? Everybody's got a take on Iran. Almost nobody can explain it like this. The fellas — Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook — listen to Senator Tim Sheehy to lay it out: why this moment feels like the culmination of a fight that's been running for decades, why the “we're starting a war” framing doesn't match reality, and why the potential domestic ripple effects are concerning. In this episode… Sheehy's Iran breakdown: proxies, deterrence, “finish the job” logic. PLUS, DHS funding fight and what's at stake when the basics get politicized.Variety chaos: the kind of headline that makes you rewind to make sure you heard it right. The show swings to Ohio: the fellas sit down with Senator Jon Husted — a legit football guy with a national championship story — to talk the Ohio Senate race, how he pitches “grow the pie” economics, and why career and technical education is the part of the jobs debate that actually touches real families.

In this podcast episode, JJ discusses ZeroEyes, an AI weapons-detection software-as-a-service created in response to the Parkland shooting to make existing security cameras proactive rather than reactive. The platform works with current IP cameras (720p minimum) to detect brandished firearms (not concealed weapons) and sends detections within seconds to the ZeroEyes Operation Center, where trained former law enforcement or military personnel verify threats to reduce false positives before calling 911 and the client. The conversation covers why human judgment is kept in the loop, how special-operations mission focus shapes company culture and go-to-market, and why competitors without an operations center struggle. Key adoption challenges include limited school budgets, distracting “shiny” analytics, reliance on bonds and grants, and efforts to lower costs via insurance partnerships and state blanket funding.00:24 Origin Story Parkland02:16 Making Cameras Proactive03:50 Human in the Loop08:27 Mission Driven Culture12:12 Avoiding Shiny Analytics14:39 Budget and Funding Hurdles17:02 Partnerships and Insurance20:28 Hesitation Costs Lives22:18 Signals and Real CasesConnect with JJ: Website: https://www.jjparma.comZeroEyes: https://www.zeroeyes.comLinkedIn: JJ ParmaEmail: johnparma@zeroeyes.comConnect with Raul: • Work with Raul: https://dogoodwork.io/apply • Free Growth Resources: https://dogoodwork.io/free-growth-resources• Connect with Raul on LinkedIn (DMs open): https://www.linkedin.com/in/dogoodwork/

(8:31)• You don't have to precheck in Israel because it's mandatory service for Israeli's. (9:25)• We saw our family with tattoos on their arms from death camps and concentration camps they were sent to. (19:19)• In Israel, all of our officers are “Mustangs.” (Prior enlisted and then cross over to become officers) (26:51)• In Israel, you don't really have a lot of senior enlisted guys, especially operators. The most senior guys – the ones with the most experience – are officers. (30:11)Israeli Arabs, who are Israeli citizens, don't have to serve. Ulta orthodox Jews are also exempt from service. (31:44)• [Marcus] Do something for your people. (37:01)• I really wanted to help create a program to help show them [combat veterans] how to utilize the skills they got from their military training and service in the business world, because I realized that a lot of the skills that I got from the military is what helped me become a successful entrepreneur.0 (40:46)• Our program is open to all combat veterans from U.S and Israel.

Scott Schara is a nationally recognized expert commentator on the medical murder agenda in America and the dangers of incentivized healthcare.

The show opens with tensions rising in the Middle East as a U.S. Space Force squadron is temporarily barred from alcohol during heightened operations connected to U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iranian targets (13:07). Back stateside, a West Point cadet is dismissed after allegedly threatening to release AI-generated nude images of a woman, highlighting a growing challenge the military is facing with deepfakes, digital harassment, and how emerging technology is colliding with military discipline and ethics (23:37). But it's not all scandal and strategy. We also spotlight an Air Force pilot who's turning Guinness World Records into a force for good, using record-breaking achievements to raise money and awareness for veterans and charitable causes (30:22). Then we dive into Unheralded History. Before the Navy SEALs became legends, there was the Underwater Demolition Team (UDT), the frogmen who swam into heavily defended beaches during World War II to clear obstacles before amphibious invasions. These daring pioneers laid the foundation for the modern SEAL teams (40:22). From there we revisit Operation Praying Mantis, the largest U.S. naval combat operation since World War II. In 1988, the U.S. Navy unleashed devastating force against Iranian naval units in the Persian Gulf after a U.S. warship struck an Iranian mine, sinking ships and crippling Iran's ability to threaten shipping lanes (47:27). Finally, we crack open one of the strangest intelligence operations of the Cold War: Operation Merlin, a CIA plot that attempted to sabotage Iran's nuclear ambitions by secretly passing flawed nuclear weapon designs through a Russian scientist. As you might expect, the operation didn't exactly go according to plan (54:30). From Space Force readiness and AI scandals to frogmen, naval battles, and CIA spycraft, this episode of Late For Changeover delivers another mission-packed ride through military news, history, and the stories you probably didn't hear anywhere else.

Send a textMike Morgan is a 30 yr medically retired police officer veteran who worked for both the Atlanta & Suffolk County, NY PD's. Approximately 1 yr after retirement, Mike was watching a Shawn Ryan podcast episode featuring guest Eddie Penney, a former Navy SEAL when he realized that the feelings (Anger, rage, depression general unhappiness) he had been experiencing post retirement were some sort of PTSD that he had suffered during the course of his career. Mike knew he needed help but was unsure of what modality to utilize, but eventually settled on psychedelics. After journeying with Ayahuasca in early March 2024, he transformed his life during the course of a weekend. He realized that his life's purpose was to go forth and help other first responder's/military veterans heal their PTSD and trauma issues. He started a podcast, The Resilient Warrior Nation to do just that, and has just completed a book, The Resilient Warrior, which is also heavily focused on childhood trauma that he believes, originally propelled him into policing as a career.

What if everything we've been told about self-improvement is wrong? In this episode, Daniel Coyle, the New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code and The Talent Code, reveals why he "stopped the presses" on his latest book to change its entire focus.

In today's episode, Tom and co-host Drew kick things off with a lightning-fast breakdown of a world in chaos—Mexico under siege by drug cartels following the death of El Mencho, Iran on the brink of nuclear capability, and political drama from New York to the Middle East. Tom dives into the explosive unfolding cartel violence in Mexico, dissects the U.S. military's covert involvement, and questions Claudia Sheinbaum's controversial stance on handling narco-terrorism. The conversation doesn't stop there—Drew and Tom trade perspectives on the complexities of combating cartels, the morality and practicalities of state-sponsored violence, and whether restraint or escalation is the right answer. They jump into global politics, analyzing Trump's hardline tactics in Iran, the game of power nations play, and the economic undercurrents shaping the future of the Middle East. Through sharp debate and humorous takes, the episode explores how religion, politics, and economics intersect—from Mike Huckabee's biblical views on Israel's land right, to the irony of needing more ID to shovel snow than to vote. This episode is jam-packed with deep dives, tough questions, and candid reflections on leadership, morality, and the real-world consequences of decisions made at the highest levels. Buckle up—it's an unfiltered look at today's most pressing global issues, and Tom and Drew are here to challenge assumptions, connect the dots, and keep you thinking long after the credits roll.
