Podcasts about tattered beans

Tattered Lives Far, (TLF), is the brainchild of our Veteran Founder, Jason “Jake” Jean. Jake is also the founder of Tattered Beans Coffee. Through the sale of coffee, Tattered Beans partners with veterans and works with them in the selling process of the coffee. Each veteran in the program is given a personalized link that provides a portion of each coffee product sale to the veteran whose Tattered Beans Coffee code was used.   Giving back isn’t always monetarily-based. At TLF, the thought of giving back is simply a constant presence of mind. From finding new production animals a new home, to the enjoyment of bringing those animals and people together, TLF is a place of re connection and serenity.   Tattered Lives Farm is simply about bringing together people and animals as a means to improve the overall joy in life.

Mike talks with Shauna Springer and Jason Roncoroni, co-authors of the new book, "Beyond the Military: A Leader's Handbook for Warrior Reintegration." We talk about why it is so hard to successfully transition from military to veteran and rejoin civilian life. Jason and Shauna's book, which is available on Amazon now, includes practical application exercises to help you nail that transition into a meaningful and fulfilling life. I really enjoyed this interview and how Jason and Shauna find the missing keys to a good transition. For someone who talks about this in my professional and podcasting life every single day, I came away with a lot of good information and new ways of looking at transition.   Order the book today!  Beyond the Military: A Leader's Handbook for Warrior Reintegration    Connect with Lt.

Lani Hankins is an Army vet who deployed to Afghanistan. Working in a war zone was no cake walk, but Lani found the return home to be the tougher battle. Mike and Lani talk about some of the misconceptions of trauma and PTSD - where it comes from, how it doesn't have to be from combat, and why other veterans can really turn on the hate.   Lani is the host of Kruse Corner, a podcast whose name is an homage to a soldier who took his own life after returning home and becoming one of the 22 veterans per day to complete a suicide each day. Through her writing and podcast, Lani leads the charge to help those who are hurting to connect with each other and to stomp the stigma of PTSD and moral injury into the dirt.

This week's episode is a companion to the Marine Corps Times article Dr. Shauna Springer and I coauthored on how we can talk about suicide. As we talk about in the show, a Marine Corps colonel was recently quoted as saying that "suicide is a shameful act." We get into why this is not accurate and how to productively talk about suicide and how to help those suffering and the loved ones of those who have completed a suicide. Read our article here   This week I am joined by Dr. Shauna Springer and Eric Strom.   Shauna Springer is a licensed clinical psychologist. She is the TAPS Suicide Prevention & Postvention Senior Director who is known by many service members and veterans as “Doc Springer” based on the trust she has earned within the Tribe and her role as a trusted advisor to many who have served within the military.

On Episode 51we talk with Jason "Jake" Jean, owner of Tattered Beans Coffee. Tattered Beans launched as a mission to sell good coffee and directly support veterans and first responders with every sale. Their unique model of having vets and first responders as envoys gives customers the ability to choose who they want to support with each purpose, knowing that $4 of each bag of coffee sold will go directly to that individual. No middleman, no restrictions. Simple and effective.   Jake and I talk about his service in the Air Force, why Montana (where he served) is such a bad ass place filled with tough cowboys, how he came to found Tattered Beans, and why this model of supporting those who serve our country and communities is so simple and so effective. I am a sponsored athlete with Tattered Beans and each sale of coffee I make goes directly to my fundraiser for the Ironman Foundation's Gold Star Initiative. All you have to do is keep drinking coffee through Tattered Beans and $4 from each sale goes to the fundraiser. How's that for a win-win.   ---> Buy some Tattered Beans Coffee today!

Jason Jean is the founder of Tattered Beans, a really successful coffee company which gives back to US veterans. He’s an Air Force veteran himself, who recently learned he has cancer. He’d been an entrepreneur for 20+ years, earned and lost millions, gaining the most of his entrepreneurial skills through real world experience, and after his diagnosis he wanted to focus on leaving a legacy and helping those who are willing to protect our freedom. An awesome person, and one of our all-time favorite guests. Enjoy!

Jason Jean has been an entrepreneur for quite some time, his passion project is Tattered Beans Coffee and they help out veterans, Police, Fire and EMS by giving back with every bag of coffee sold.

Jason & Chad sit down with Rob Tufano. Rob is a former 10 year veteran of the NYPD and an award winning television news reporter. He's currently the public safety communications director for the city of Charlotte and also owns Tufano Media Group which consults police agencies around the world on their communications strategies. Jason Jean with Tattered Beans Coffee also stops in for an extended good news segment about his veteran owned business venture that gives back directly to veterans in a unique way. And yeah...we eat some bacon.

Jason Jean was born in Williamsport, PA. His mother and father instilled hardworking, blue collar values in him from a young age. At only 14, he was running his own roofing crew. He played football in high school and used that skill later in college. After an ankle injury playing college football, Jason came back to his hometown. He needed something more, and his dad suggested he join the Air Force. He was stationed at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, Montana, where he was part of the 341st Security Forces Group. After suffering a debilitating knee injury, he was honorably discharged a short time later, destroying his dream of being a military lifer.  
Once he left the Air Force, Jason's entrepreneurial spirit finally had a chance to break out. He owned his own construction company, which lead to many great experiences. He has also been involved in various other enterprises, including nightclubs, hotels, alternative lifestyle events, and cafes. He has made it a point to give back to military veterans throughout his businesses, whether that be through helping feed homeless veterans in Central PA at his cafes or giving them a place to stay in a building he owned.  
Because of his mission to give back to the veterans he admires, he kept striving to find a bigger way to achieve that. Seeing all the stories about organizations misusing funds that were supposed to go to veterans, Jason knew he had to do something. Why weren't these funds going directly to veterans? Why is there so much red tape? After doing research on how these non-profits operated, an idea was born. He was in the process of working with a roaster in Lancaster County, PA, to start a coffee line. With so many Americans drinking coffee every single day, why not use that as a vehicle to drive donations directly to veterans?  
Tattered Beans is a veteran owned, veteran focused coffee company that gives back directly to veterans. Through their direct donation project, proceeds from each bag of coffee sold goes directly to the veteran or military branch of the customer's choice. How is that possible? Customers simply go to tatteredbeans.com, select a veteran or military branch, then shop for their coffee as normal. For each $12 bag of coffee sold, $4 is given to the veteran selected. Because transparency is important to Tattered Beans, we want to make it clear that we are a for-profit company that operates on $1 per bag sold. What happens when a customer selects a military branch instead? Tattered Beans then takes that money and gives it to a veteran within the database under that branch that had no donations that month.  Watch the full episode here: https://projectegg.co/patience-is-a-virtue About The Project EGG Show: The Project EGG Show is a video talk show that introduces you to entrepreneurs from around the world.

What happens when a customer selects a military branch instead? Tattered Beans then takes that money and gives it to a veteran within the database under that branch that had no donations that month. One obstacle that Tattered Beans has faced is getting veterans involved. Putting money directly in their pockets is not an easy sell, as not everyone needs, or is willing to admit they need, help. This led Tattered Beans to give veterans options. When submitting their information at vets.tatteredbeans.com, veterans (or their loved ones) have the option to choose if the money goes directly to them, to a veteran they know needs help, or to an organization that is close to their heart. The only requirement for veterans is that they were honorably discharged. Tattered Beans wants to make sure every veteran knows that their service to our country is greatly appreciated. Tattered Beans stands out from the veteran-owned coffee company crowd because of their unique direct donation project. Jason Jean, the founder, has made it a mission to make a positive impact in veterans’ lives throughout the country. Tattered Beans has made it a goal to give back $4,000,000 to veterans by the end of 2019.

Dr. Shauna Springer returns to the show and talks about how we can understand suicide and how to prevent our friends and loved ones from attempting or completing a suicide by taking on this enemy using the same principles of the Marine Rifle Squad. Many times the topic of suicide is discussed with a helpless and morose tone, but this conversation is not that. Doc Springer fills us in on how we can empower ourselves and our friends.   Dr. Springer discusses some of the concepts from her upcoming book, "The Fox in Our Gut" and how the bonds of love forged in war are stronger than the despair we can feel. Doc Springer is the author of "Marriage for Equals" and is a regular contributor to Psychology Today. ========= Support Mike's fundraising for The Ironman Foundation's Gold Star Initiative    ================================   Transitions from War After his service in the United States Marines Corps, Mike Ergo started the Transitions from War blog  and Podcast to talk about his struggles returning from combat in Iraq.

Today I had the pleasure of chatting with Veteran and Founder of Tattered Beans Coffee, Jason Jean. Jason Jean was born in Williamsport, PA. His mother and father instilled hardworking, blue collar values in him from a young age. At only 14, he was running his own roofing crew. He played football in high school and used that skill later in college. After an ankle injury playing college football, Jason came back to his hometown. He needed something more, and his dad suggested he join the Air Force. He was stationed at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, Montana, where he was part of the 341stSecurity Forces Group. After suffering a debilitating knee injury, he was honorably discharged a short time later, destroying his dream of being a military lifer.  Once he left the Air Force, Jason’s entrepreneurial spirit finally had a chance to break out. He owned his own construction company, which lead to many great experiences. He has also been involved in various other enterprises, including nightclubs, hotels, alternative lifestyle events, and cafes. He has made it a point to give back to military veterans throughout his businesses, whether that be through helping feed homeless veterans in Central PA at his cafes or giving them a place to stay in a building he owned.  Because of his mission to give back to the veterans he admires, he kept striving to find a bigger way to achieve that. Seeing all the stories about organizations misusing funds that were supposed to go to veterans, Jason knew he had to do something. Why weren’t these funds going directly to veterans? Why is there so much red tape? After doing research on how these non-profits operated, an idea was born. He was in the process of working with a roaster in Lancaster County, PA, to start a coffee line. With so many Americans drinking coffee every single day, why not use that as a vehicle to drive donations directly to veterans?  Tattered Beans is a veteran owned, veteran focused coffee company that gives back directly to veterans. Through their direct donation project, proceeds from each bag of coffee sold goes directly to the veteran or military branch of the customer’s choice. How is that possible? Customers simply go to tatteredbeans.com, select a veteran or military branch, then shop for their coffee as normal. For each $12 bag of coffee sold, $4 is given to the veteran selected. Because transparency is important to Tattered Beans, we want to make it clear that we are a for-profit company that operates on $1 per bag sold. What happens when a customer selects a military branch instead? Tattered Beans then takes that money and gives it to a veteran within the database under that branch that had no donations that month.  One obstacle that Tattered Beans has faced is getting veterans involved. Putting money directly in their pockets is not an easy sell, as not everyone needs, or is willing to admit they need, help. This led Tattered Beans to give veterans options. When submitting their information at vets.tatteredbeans.com, veterans (or their loved ones) have the option to choose if the money goes directly to them, to a veteran they know needs help, or to an organization that is close to their heart. The only requirement for veterans is that they were honorably discharged. Tattered Beans wants to make sure every veteran knows that their service to our country is greatly appreciated. Tattered Beans stands out from the veteran owned coffee company crowd because of their unique direct donation project. Jason Jean, the founder, has made it a mission to make a positive impact in veterans’ lives throughout the country. Tattered Beans has made it a goal to give back $4,000,000 to veterans by the end of 2019. To get involved, head over to tatteredbeans.com and get started.
