I spent time in the military, including an active-duty tour to Iraq in 2005-2006. I know how hard it can be transition from service to civilian life. One of the most challenging things for me was to go from having a clear sense of direction and purpose to not knowing what my next battle was. I know a lot of our nation's warriors feel the same. Today I talk with my good friend, Phil Randazzo, about his 15-year mission to help our military members successfully transition into civilian life. I believe so much in what he and his organization are doing that I now sit on the board of advisors for American Dream U. Today we talk about why transitioning out of the military is so challenging, what our military members should be doing prior to leaving service, how they can find a new battle to fight, and how we can support our nation's warriors. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Why transitioning out of the military is so challenging Why our veterans discount their experience from the military What obligations and responsibilities we have to take care of our warriors How building a new tribe is critical for veterans The best steps to take prior to transitioning from service How to develop a new sense of purpose beyond the military Why suicide rates are so high among veterans and what to do about it How to find a new battle to fight How to harness technology to launch a successful second career Business owners' perspectives on hiring military members What valuable translatable skills military members possess PHIL RANDAZZO Gentlemen, I can't even begin to describe how excited I am to introduce you to my friend Phil Randazzo. Him and I met about a year ago through some mutual acquaintances and since began working together with his organization, American Dream U. Phil is an extremely successful business owner working in the financial services industry but more important than that is his 15-year journey to help transition our nation's warriors. I can tell you that this is a man who has his heart in the right place and is genuinely concerned with helping our veterans. He's been invited to the White House, testified in front of Congress on the behalf of veterans, been given a key to the city of Las Vegas, and commissioned as a member of the Veterans Service Commission. So, needless to say, he's committed to the work and I couldn't be more proud to be part of his organization and call him a friend.

In this episode, the MannUp Report brings in a very special guest – Mr. Phil Randazzo, CEO and Founder of American Dream U. Phil is a ‘serial entrepreneur' from Las Vegas, Nevada who is giving back to our warriors and their families in a very big way. His non-profit, American Dream U is filling the transition gap that DOD and the VA just can't fill. Phil is bringing in some of the most successful entrepreneurs and business leaders in America and putting them shoulder to shoulder with our troops and their families. This is leadership in action. Listen to this podcast and you'll see a really powerful transition tool that everyone should know about.

Can a free phone and desktop application reduce the incidents of distracted teenage driving? Las Vegas entrepreneurs Leon Wilde and Phil Randazzo believe it can, and they are betting their ample experience as successful business owners and investors on DriveSafe Mode, a patented application they designed to save lives – and parental anxiety. Think of DriveSafe Mode as a 24/7 tattletale. If your teen is texting, tweeting, snapchatting, of otherwise posting – when he or she is in a moving vehicle, DriveSafe Mode can shut down the phone and notify you immediately. If your teen tries to disable the application, DriveSafe Mode will let you know that as well.  This week on Monday Morning Radio, Leon and Phil tell host and noted reputation coach Dean Rotbart how they are navigating the highly competitive web app marketplace, and why they believe DriveSafe Mode is their express lane to a much larger, more successful suite of profitable products.

Fresh and Inspiring are two words to describe this podcast with Phil Randazzo. We discuss how to avoid falling in “The Gap”, as Dan Sullivan from Strategic Coach states. We review what the common denominator is amongst successful people. We further discuss how, in order to move the needle, you must self-evaluate often, self-educate constantly, put away distractions, and make your health a priority. We highlight two important projects that are giving back to the men and women in the military who are/have served our country. Phil has a diverse portfolio, but his primary passion is working with his non-profit organization American Dream U. American Dream helps soldiers get education and access to resources they need to find their dream job or to start a business of their own.     For more about Dr. Zyrowski & NuVision Excel, visit Nuvisionexcel.com Discover how you can help with American Dream U at http://americandreamu.org Get Reel 'n Smoke Gear, Jerky, and Sauces to support the troops at www.reelnsmoke.com   Buy Phil's Books: Funding Your Bigger Future & Shark Talk    Get Phil's Apps: Drive Safe Mode School Zone Mode
