In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Green Beret and Special Forces veteran Tu Lam, the man behind Ronin Tactics, for a rare look inside the daily practice that rebuilt him after war. Tu Lam walks through a five hour morning routine of meditation, breath work, grounding, cold plunges and fasted training, and explains how each piece calms the nervous system and clears the trauma the body holds on to. From a childhood that began as a refugee left for dead at three years old, to the special forces years, to the weight he carried home from the battlefield, Tu Lam opens up about the anger, the anxiety and the numbing that followed him for years. He describes the four year psychedelic journey through Ibogaine and DMT that cracked open memories his analytical mind could never reach, what it meant to face ego death and truly surrender, and how that journey ultimately led him to faith and to Christ. Whether you are drawn to the mindset of a special forces operator, the science of processing trauma, or the search for meaning after a life of chaos, Tu Lam offers a blueprint for surrendering the weight and starting each day with intention.

In the final chapter of Tu Lam's story, the walls come down completely. Part 3 opens where the inner war is still raging — fame, an imposter's burden, and a broken heart that Eastern philosophy and psychedelics couldn't fully fix. What follows is Tu's account of the moment he finally surrendered to Jesus Christ, how three years of daily Bible study rewired his understanding of sin, sacrifice, and purpose, and what it now means to walk as a disciple in the tactical and law enforcement world he built his name in. Host Mike Ritland and Tu also go deep on marriage in special operations, the global consequences of the Iraq War, the trap of media consumption, and what Tu carries every day — on his hip and in his heart.

Former Green Beret and Special Mission Unit operator Tu Lam opens up about the hidden battles that followed one of the most decorated careers in special operations. In Part 2, Tu and host Mike Ritland go deep on his years conducting covert intelligence work, the opiate addiction that took root after a 2005 IED blast and quietly consumed nearly a decade of his life, and the shame of a medical retirement he never felt he earned. From rock bottom in a dark room to becoming the most downloaded character in Call of Duty history, Tu traces the long road back — through psychedelics, spiritual warfare, and an encounter he never expected — to something that finally gave him peace.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Green Beret and Special Forces operator Tu Lam, founder of Ronin Tactics. Tu Lam opens up about escaping genocide in Vietnam as a refugee child, floating on a boat at three years old left for dead, and how that early survival forged the resilience that carried him through 23 years in the military. From the 82nd Airborne to Ranger School, Special Forces selection, the deployment in Okinawa, and eventually the top tier of army special operations working alongside the CIA, Tu Lam built a career at the tip of the spear. But the war came home with him. In this episode he speaks honestly about a decade of opioid addiction, the hate that made him proficient in combat but a horrible human being, a traumatic brain injury, suicidal thoughts, and the total loss of identity that hit when the uniform came off. This is also a story about climbing back out. Tu Lam breaks down the practical tools that rebuilt him, from journaling and tracking emotions to their root thoughts, to meditation, gratitude, meditations on death drawn from the Tibetan monks, and ultimately his surrender to faith and his walk with Jesus Christ.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Mike Glover, former Special Forces Green Beret, former CIA contractor, and founder of Fieldcraft Survival, for a conversation on elite military training, Delta Force, survival psychology, faith, and the long road back to civilian life. Mike Glover takes us from a North Carolina childhood spent playing soldier to a five year journey earning the Green Beret, guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Solider as badge holder 470, and serving across nine combat rotations in Afghanistan and Iraq. He shares the reality of Robin Sage training, building host nation forces with the Iraqi Counterterrorism Force, standing up a counter terrorism programme in Libya the month after Benghazi, and the technical reconnaissance work he and Tu Lam carried out inside Delta Force, including a now declassified DARPA drone project that involved a vulture. This is also a deeply honest account of what comes after the uniform. Mike opens up about losing his identity in transition, the night he hit rock bottom alone on an air mattress, finding his way back through hot yoga, faith in Christ, and the medicine that helped him heal. He breaks down the 10-80-10 rule of survival psychology, his philosophy of operating the outdoors rather than just surviving it, and the three priorities every veteran should rebuild first.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Tu Lam, former Green Beret, CIA-trained operator, and CEO of Ronin Tactics, for a conversation about war, faith, and the long road to healing. A child refugee who escaped Vietnam and survived genocide before the age of seven, Tu Lam went on to serve 23 years in US Army Special Forces during the height of the global war on terrorism, becoming the inspiration behind a Call of Duty character and a recognised face in the tactical world. Behind the warrior image was a man living in silent suffering. In this deeply personal interview, Tu Lam opens up about the spiritual battle that woke him at three o'clock every morning, his journey through psychedelics and plant medicine to confront buried childhood trauma, and how surrendering to his faith in Jesus finally brought him peace. He shares the real meaning behind the Ronin name, the seven virtues of the Bushido code, hard lessons learned working alongside the British SAS and other elite units, and why he came to believe the enemy was never external. This is a story about awareness, forgiveness, and learning to be present. About carrying two swords, the physical and the spiritual, and finding the balance between them.

Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
In the intricate dance of life, sometimes we find ourselves drawn to stories that stir our souls, tales of profound resilience and deep spiritual awakening. Today's episode brings such a story to our ears as we welcome Tu Lam, a spiritual warrior whose journey from war-torn Vietnam to the disciplined world of Special Forces unveils the essence of the human spirit and the transformative power of inner peace.Tu Lam's life began amidst the chaos of the Vietnam War, a tumultuous start that would shape his destiny in ways unimaginable. His early years were marked by survival, escaping the horrors of war on a fishing boat with his mother, facing pirates, storms, and near starvation. Yet, this early exposure to adversity planted the seeds of resilience and an unyielding will to overcome.As a young refugee in America, Tu faced the harsh realities of racism and poverty. These challenges, however, only strengthened his resolve. Guided by the warrior ethos of the samurai, he delved into the teachings of Bushido, finding solace and purpose in its ancient virtues of honor, duty, and compassion. It was during these formative years that he began to forge the path of a modern-day warrior, one who fights not just physical battles, but also the inner conflicts that shape our lives.Tu's journey into the military was a natural progression. At the age of 18, he joined the Army, and by 21, he was a Special Forces Green Beret, living the warrior's path he had admired since childhood. His military career took him to the most volatile regions of the world, where he fought for the oppressed and protected the innocent. Yet, amidst the valor and the victories, he carried with him the heavy burdens of war, trauma, and the relentless quest for meaning.In this profound conversation, Tu Lam shares, “Purpose, there was a higher purpose. I didn't know it at the time.” His reflections reveal a deep understanding of the karmic and dharmic roles we play in the universe. As a warrior, he protected, fought, and survived, embodying the very essence of his dharma. But it wasn't until he began his spiritual journey, much later in life, that he truly understood the higher purpose guiding him.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

From Special Forces veteran and internationally respected teacher of Ronin Tactics to streaming and videogame fan favorite, Tu Lam's memoir will captivate, astonish, exhilarate, and even profoundly resonate. Tu Lam has become known not just for his accomplishments as a decorated Green Beret, but also for his work outside the military, including: * Training citizens and law enforcement professionals all over the country . Providing aid to both active and retired soldiers with physical and mental health issues . * Co-hosting the History Channel's Forged in Fire: Knife or Death . * Appearing in and contributing to the world's bestselling video game, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare In The Way of Rōnin, he reveals his against-all-odds story. Tu Lam's resilience, dedication, and relentless pursuit of freedom saw him achieving Full Spectrum US Special Operations across twenty-seven countries worldwide for more than twenty years, only to pay the price of his own physical and mental trauma as well as addiction. That decision led him to more than two decades of grueling instruction in every facet of the special forces, then deployment to war and conflict zones-all while channeling his inner anger in secret underground no-holds barred fighting matches. When he finally retired from the military after more than two decades, his demons caught up with him, leading to years of addiction. But even that didn't defeat him. Confronting his demons, he emerged triumphant. Now he shares the gripping details and riveting intricacies of this awe-inspiring journey. Tu Lam's life is, at times, all too real, and at many others times, almost unbelievable. For fans of Jocko Willink and David Goggins, The Way of Rōnin is an ultimately triumphant autobiography of what one man can accomplish against seemingly insurmountable odds.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Tu Lam is the epitome of many things. He's a loyal military member, a highly trained martial artist, weapons expert, firearm tactician, teacher, and finally a soft-spoken and caring individual who literally changes lives every day. In this episode of Gut Check Uncut, you'll get to know the real Tu Lam. And most notably, the struggle he went through and the daily practices and beliefs that has made him the man he is today. Tu Lam retired from the United States Army as a Master Sergeant after 22 years of service. Over the course of his career he deployed to over 20 countries, including warzones and running counter-terrorism operations in the Philippines, Iraq and Libya. He's inspired by the character "Ronin" from the video game, "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare". The creator of the game, Infinity Ward, reached out to him because of his expertise in martial arts so that they could capture his hand-to-hand weapons combat movements. Don't skip ONE SECOND of this episode because when he speaks; you listen.
On this episode of the Mag Life Podcast, two warriors formally meet and for a heavy discussion about their war and peacetime experiences. Daniel is joined by Tu Lam, a Vietnamese-American former US Army Special Forces Green Beret, martial artist, trainer, entrepreneur, and TV show host. Known for his tactical gear and training company, Ronin Tactics, he is also known for his on-screen appearance on Forged in Fire: Knife or Death, as well as being featured as a playable character in Call of Duty: Warzone. Tu has carved out a public image of himself as a disciplined modern-day warrior and teacher. Daniel explores Tu's unforgiving upbringing as a Vietnam War refugee, his decorated career as a US Army Special Operations soldier, his passion for the martial arts, and his Bushido mindset to find peace during adversity. https://media.blubrry.com/gunfightercast/content.blubrry.com/gunfightercast/184-Tu_Lam_Finding_Peace_as_a_Warrior.mp3 Host: Daniel Shaw Guest (usual Co-Host!): Tu Lam Introduction/Timeline: Eric Huh 02:41 Escaping Death Daniel asks Tu about his upbringing and what lead him to where he is today. Tu reveals a tragic and violent past, being born literally in the midst of the Vietnam War. Upon the US leaving South Vietnam and Saigon falling, the North Vietnamese forces rounded up the majority of Tu's family and had them executed. His mother took her children and fled with thousands of others to escape oppression. What awaited the Lam family was more cruelty and suffering as they, along with hundreds of other refugees, were cramped into tiny boats, sailing in the South China Sea. Upon reaching the coast of Malaysia, they were denied entry into the country. The Malaysian troops cut their motor and left the entire boat of refugees out to die. For 30 days straight, the refugees drifted out with no access to clean water or food. Just as Tu's mother had given up all hope and contemplated feeding poison to her children to spare them of further misery, a Russian naval supply vessel spotted their boat. Despite being on opposite sides of the war, the Soviet troops showed mercy and saved the refugees by providing food and medical aid. This was nothing short of a miracle made by fortuitous timing. If the war was still ongoing, the Soviets would have been compelled to follow wartime protocol and would have taken the refugees back to Vietnam. The horrors the Lam family faced, unfortunately, did not end there. The refugees were relocated into a camp in an Indonesian jungle, with no actual facilities or resources. Dead bodies would be regularly found in the jungles near the camp as people attempted to forage and find food. The strength of Tu's mother was all that held them together. “[My mother] is my strength… [During that time] there was a slim to no chance that we would have lived. And she goes, ‘I would have rather died than to have lived in fear'” After a year and a half, Tu's uncle was finally able to pay for his family to immigrate to the US. 12:55 Living in a Post-War America One of Tu's earliest memories of living in the states was entering a grocery store in North Carolina with his mother. From living through horrific starvation to suddenly being able to pick any food item of his choice was a culture shock. But post-Vietnam War America was not without its faults. Tu's entire childhood was riddled with instances of racist encounters and harassment from his white counterparts. The context Tu gives is that the entirety of the Vietnam War was not at all popular in the US, which in turn spawned many racist anti-Asian sentiments. At eight years of age, Tu experienced bullying from a racist white classmate. One day the situation escalated to where both Tu and his bully were sent to the principal's office to be reprimanded. The bully's mother was called in and was informed about the incident. When she turned to speak to Tu, instead of offering any hint of an apology,
As our first season of Creative Content for a Cause starts to wrap up for our BIG season finale, we thought what better way to show how effective the samurai lifestyle and bushido code is by talking to someone who lives by it day in and day out. Tu Lam, more well known as Ronin Tactics, is a former Army Sergeant Major who served in the Army special forces for over 20 years. During his time in the military, he traveled to multiple different to protect and serve others while also serving multiple tours overseas in the middle east. Eventually, everything that he's been through in the Army caught up to him. Ronin was facing some dark times when he decided to pick up the Book of the Five Rings, a book by world-renown samurai Miyamoto Musashi. And ever since that day he hasn't looked back since. During this podcast we talked about everything from his upbringing to military service but most importantly what is a Ronin, what is bushido, and how living the way of the samurai has worked for him to have a very successful spiritual and fulfilling life.
