About the Book: What starts as a minute-by-minute account of a disaster in a war zone quickly turns into an uplifting story of survival and triumph in FINDING WAYPOINTS: A Warrior's Journey Towards Peace and Purpose by Terese Schlachter and Col. Gregory D. Gadson, (Ret.). Emmy Award winning television producer Schlachter was working at the Pentagon Channel when she attended a press event at Walter Reed Army Medical Center's Military Advanced Training Center (MATC) in 2007 after a decade covering national news for NBC and MSNBC in Washington. There, the co-authors met for the first time. Their resulting book is the result of their extraordinary relationship, a hybrid of biography and autobiography, that tells the story of a man who survived the worst and has used his experience to enrich the lives of others. ***Copies of the book will be made available for purchase at the conclusion of the event and can be signed by the author.*** Purchase the book here. About the Authors: Terese Schlachter is a Washington, D.C., based writer and producer of videos and documentaries (NBC News, Dept of Defense) who first met Colonel Gadson when covering the new veterans facility at the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center in 2007. She became his fast friend and confidante during his painful recovery and rehabilitation. Terese is a three-time Emmy Award-winning television producer and founder and Chief Storyteller of Ridgeback Communications. Her short film "Picture Perfect" was nominated for "Best Short" at the 2017 DC Indie Film festival as well as a National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Emmy. She lives in Shady Side, Maryland, with her husband Jon, and Lillian, a Rhodesian Ridgeback dog. Colonel Gregory Gadson, (Ret.) was grievously wounded in an IED attack in Iraq in 2007 while he and his unit were returning from a service for two fallen soldiers. He subsequently lost both legs and severely injured his right arm, and, in the course of his rehabilitation and recovery, he became a source of inspiration and motivation for other war-wounded at the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Due to his longtime connection with West Point as a football player there, and his friendship with the coach of the then-struggling NY Giants in 2007, Gadson soon became a motivational co-coach and spiritual guide, helping the team go from nearly last place to Superbowl Champions in 2008. Gadson subsequently starred in a major Hollywood movie, Battleship, and has been an admired motivational speaker and coach for numerous organizations, both civilian and military, for several years now. An avid outdoorsman and enthusiast of skiing, cycling, and deep-sea fishing, he has led numerous adventure-travel expeditions for wounded veterans. He is the recipient of the 2010 NCAA Inspiration Award and the 2017 Henry Biscardi Achievement Award. In his honor, in October 2022, the new veterans center at Wayne State University was named the Colonel Gregory Gadson Office of Military and Veterans Academic Excellence. When not traveling around the country as a motivational speaker, Gadson enjoys time at home in Alexandria, VA, with his wife, children, and grandchildren, and continues to pursue his acting career and his love of photography.

COL. GREGORY GADSON (RET.) - “Finding Waypoints: A Warrior's Journey Toward Peace and Purpose” TERESE SCHLACHTER - “Finding Waypoints: A Warrior's Journey Toward Peace and Purpose” As part of a national book tour, WTOL 11 interviewed Retired Army Colonel Greg Gadson and his co-author Terese Schlachter. Their book, entitled “Finding Waypoints: A Warrior's Journey Towards Peace and Purpose” details Gadson's life and the many turns it's taken, including the 2007 IED attack in Iraq that nearly took his life. As a double amputee, Gadson has persevered and has become an inspiration to many including his co-author and Toledo native, Terese Schlachter.

The smartest preppers realize that you should constantly be reviewing your evacuation plan to find new, more efficient ways to level-up your gear and the actions you'll take when it's "go time" in a disaster. That why I love it when our followers and Academy members ask me to review their current prepping plans and offer my advice on ways they can upgrade their level of preparedness. And that's where I met Joshua, and in this week's show, I'll take you on a 10-point journey through the highlights of his plan so you can see where there may be some crossover with YOUR current plan - and give you some actionable advice that COULD just be the difference between you and your family reaching your Plan B bugout location safely... or being trapped with the other evacuees who were ill-prepared for the danger they didn't expect.

Situational Awareness: Being prepared for any battle! Have you ever wondered what you need to move into the future? Have you ever doubted your preparedness for what is in front of you? If there was a way to be properly prepared for the Battles before you, would you be interested? In today's episode of the Warrior's Journey, Mr. Black engages in a conversation with Molalla, Oregon's Mayor, Scott Keyser, focusing on the crucial aspects of Situational Awareness and Being Prepared for any battle. How did Mayor Keyser navigate a journey devoid of politics in its vision? Mr. Black guided the Mayor in preparing both his Heart and Mind for the challenges that defined his calling. As we traverse the diverse paths of life, how can we equip ourselves adequately to engage in our forthcoming 'Good Fights'? Life often presents situations that defy preparation, yet we must fortify our hearts and minds to function amidst chaos and uncertainty. This demands a heightened level of flexibility, unwavering commitment, focused determination, and an infusion of passion. By adopting these traits, we position ourselves to transform the seemingly impossible into the possible. Victory in life's battles requires a well-honed ability to navigate unexpected challenges with grace and resilience. Tune in to gain inspiration and empowerment, learning how to embark on your own Good Fight with the confidence to emerge victorious rather than succumbing to victimhood.

Hour 2 -  Happy Thursday! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Nick is live at Hurts Donut this morning! Tomorrow is National Donut Day and Hurts wants to put their money to a great cause. Hurts will be donating 10% of proceeds tomorrow to The Warrior's Journey. The Warrior's Journey works to raise awareness and create preventative resources to help educate and prepare our warriors for their time in the military and beyond. Republicans are calling foul play after the Department of Justice announced a lawsuit against the son of West Virginia Governor Jim Justice on Wednesday. Justice, a Republican, is vying for Senator Joe Manchin's seat. As Robert F. Kennedy Jr. heads out on the campaign trail for the first time since launching his campaign for the Democratic presidential campaign in April, he's pointing to the latest national polling that indicates he's grabbing double-digit support as he primary challenges President Biden.

The Warrior's Journey works to raise awareness and create preventative resources to help educate and prepare our warriors for their time in the military and beyond. ALSO -  House Oversight and Government Accountability Committee chairman James Comer doubled down on his threat to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress after a Wednesday phone call with the bureau chief.

For this part of Mark's story, he and Jon do a deep dive into Scientology's financial systems and the intricate rules of how staff are paid - if and when they are paid at all.

Many military members suffer from wounds that cannot be seen, and organizations exist that can help them heal. In this podcast, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Kevin Weaver from A Warrior's Journey, an organization that works to raise awareness and create preventative resources to help educate and prepare warriors for their time in the military and beyond. They discuss what led Weaver to begin The Warrior's Journey, the services they offer, and how they help military members find healing through Jesus.   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

Mark continues the story of his amazing journey, including the shocking contents of the "cadet org / cadet estates org establishment eval", one of the most incriminating of all Scientology issues. This is part two; part one may be found here links: Mark's website cadet org / cadet estates org establishment eval Lisa McPherson story Spike's note: Qual = qualifications, where one has to go if you haven't gotten your "training" right. "Word Clearing" is where a Scientologist has to look up the meanings of the words involved in a given document and prove that they understand them. The idea is that the ONLY reason anyone would disagree with an order from Scientology management is that they had a "misunderstood word," that is, they didn't understand a word in the order. In Mark's case, management was essentially telling him that the only reason he didn't want to not spend time with his family was that he had misunderstood some word in one of the relevant Scientology policies, NOT because they were going against their own policies and ignoring the established "family time."

Pastor Allen sits down and interviews Chad Robichaux, Azizullah Aziz, & Kevin Weaver as a part of the Sunday service at World Outreach Church on April 30th, 2023. Chad Robichaux is the Founder & President of Mighty Oaks Foundation, a USMC Force Recon Veteran, and best selling author.

How do you start your day? We all have a morning routine, but do you have a meaningful one? Before diving into our phone and emails which put the day on a frantic “go go go” mindset, we can create a routine that is impactful in that it makes us feel grounded, calm, and centered. Personal Trainer and Yoga Instructor, Megan Nolan, joins me to talk about how to create a new meaningful morning routine, even if you're busy. Megan believes that intentionality connects us to our inner guidance and to how we feel - and making ourselves a priority, even for a short time, is the ultimate gift.  Megan and I discuss morning routines and how to fit something intentional into whatever amount of time we have. My routine is an hour but yours certainly doesn't have to be. Megan describes how simply being aware of how you're holding your body while you brush your teeth is a good step. She shares about how to hack your brain so adding one new thing becomes routine, the importance of celebrating progress, how posture affects our mind, and how to open our posture up throughout the day. Megan inspires putting meaning into mornings with little things that are achievable with even the smallest amount of available time.  About Megan NolanMegan helps purpose driven women get out of self care overwhelm by creating a meaningful morning routine that leaves them feeling AH-mazing and set them up for massive success each day.She is the creator of the Warrior's Journey which is her unique combination of Yoga, toning exercises, and mental fitness that gives you the tools you need for holistic health and happiness.Contact Megan NolanPersonal Trainer & Yoga InstructorWebsite | Facebook | Instagram Resources discussed in this episode:Megan's Mini Morning Routine—Learn more about Dr Michelle Tubman and Wayza Health:Website: www.wayzahealth.comDownload my free Food Freedom Roadmap hereFollow me on Facebook and Instagram

What if you were trapped in an abusive relationship for 23 years, and the fear of judgment and rejection kept you from finding your way out? How would you rise above and reclaim your life? On this powerful episode of Real Talk, Real Women, Breaking the Silence Around Abuse, I am honored to speak with Cynthia Encinas Concordia. Cynthia bravely shares her story of transcending fear and finding a path to healing, ultimately discovering her purpose in helping others break free from their own limitations. Cynthia's journey is not only about overcoming an abusive relationship but also about navigating the cultural complexities of addressing domestic violence in the US and the Philippines. We explore how a lack of legal protection for women and children in the Philippines, as well as the emotional impact of domestic abuse, contributed to her struggles. Cynthia also shares how her work with the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank played a crucial role in helping her make a pivotal shift in her life. Tune in as Cynthia shares her wisdom on forgiveness and how it has allowed her to become the person she is today. As the founder and CEO of Dream To Rise LLC, a life coach, and the author of My Journey Into Becoming, her mission is to spread sunshine, peace, kindness, compassion, and love. Be inspired by her incredible journey and learn how you too can overcome fear and rise above adversity. Cynthia's short introduction Cynthia has been in an abusive relationship with her husband for 23 years. It was her fear that kept her in this relationship. She was afraid of what other people would say, afraid that she was not committed to her marriage vows, and afraid that she would be judged and rejected. However, after his two restraining orders, he died of a massive cardiac arrest. Being cut off by his family because she was blamed for his death, Cynthia was trapped in her dark bubble for 6 years, living a miserable life because of fear. She made a shift so her children might experience and appreciate what life really is. A graduate of De La Salle University with a bachelor's degree in AB Psychology and a BSC in Business Management, she has worked for different companies and organizations, which made her realize the importance of human connection and knowledge sharing. The two international organizations, the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank, widened her perspective on life. That's the benefit of working with colleagues from different countries around the globe. Her dream comes true was her last 6 years before she retired as an HR Analyst at the World Bank HR department. After she retired, she found something missing in her life and that was her purpose. She has discovered that her life experiences can truly help others, especially those who are stuck and afraid to go out of their comfort zone to make a change in their lives. She was in that situation, and she wants to inspire the abused women, most especially, that there is truly a light at the end of the tunnel and live the life they love. Given the remaining years of their life here on earth, there is still time to live life to the fullest and enjoy what life has to offer. Cynthia Concordia is the Founder and CEO of Dream to Rise LLC which started in September 2020.   Cynthia's vision is to spread sunshine and happiness to the people she meets so this may create a ripple effect. She only wants to see peace, kindness, compassion, and love here on earth. Her passion to spread light paved the way for her to become a life coach, publish a book, “My Journey Into Becoming”, start her mastermind group, Dream to Rise Inner Circle, and launch her podcast “Dream To Rise Podcast”. Cynthia helps women and men from 25-65 years of age who are struggling with their blockages and limiting beliefs that stop them from moving forward to manifest their dreams. Those who have gone through her program are now living their purpose and living the life they love. She just wants to share her message to the world that life is great! Don't waste your time doubting, worrying, and being afraid of what the future will offer us. You deserve to be happy.

Picking up where we left off on The Warrior's Journey podcast, Colonel Todd "Riddler" Riddle continues unpacking his new book – Faith, Family and Fighter Jets: How to Live Life to the Full with Grit and Grace. Riddle's first person recollections of pulling the trigger on a GAU-8 Avenger 30mm canon on an A-10, firing Maverick missiles, using Night Vision Goggles, or laughably failing while coaching children's sports draw readers toward discovering an authentic and practical faith—one that opens the hearts of believers and those seeking to invite the greater presence of Christ across the key dimensions of their lives. Each chapter of Faith, Family and Fighter Jets concludes with key Thunderbolt takeaways for consideration and life application. His experiences convey lessons of faith and leadership forged from a life of military service in harm's way; a missional life calling where the stakes of success and failure are at the highest possible levels.

How do you explains a breast cancer diagnosis to children? This is a struggle every young mommy faces when they're diagnosed. Struggle no more! Marci is the author of Mommy Has a Boo-Boo: Explaining Breast Cancer to Children. The book helps kids ages 3-9 learn what their Mommy is going through. The book explains that you can't see the boo-boo and tells the kids what it is called: cancer. It goes through the timeline of what one mommy went through — from having surgery and losing her breasts, to having to go through chemotherapy and losing her hair. Mommy may look different, and it will take time for Mommy to heal — but in the end, she will get better! In our interview, Marci discusses her other books, including The Breast Cancer GPS, Breast Cancer Word Search, Courage, Hope & Strength, A Warrior's Journey and more! Marci has self-published eight books in the last two years and is currently writing #9! As we discussed in our podcast, she's also helping new writers get started through her Pad-to-Publishing service. Marci, you're doing GREAT things!

Colonel Todd “Riddler” Riddle's story is anything but typical, with a combat-worn fighter jet soaring high above the mountains of Afghanistan. His experiences convey lessons of faith and leadership forged from a life of military service in harm's way; a missional life calling where the stakes of success and failure are at the highest possible levels. In this episode of The Warrior's Journey podcast, Colonel Riddle dives into his new book – Faith, Family and Fighter Jets: How to Live Life to the Full with Grit and Grace. Riddle's first person recollections of pulling the trigger on a GAU-8 Avenger 30mm canon on an A-10, firing Maverick missiles, using Night Vision Goggles, or laughably failing while coaching children's sports draw readers toward discovering an authentic and practical faith—one that opens the hearts of believers and those seeking to invite the greater presence of Christ across the key dimensions of their lives. Each chapter of Faith, Family and Fighter Jets concludes with key Thunderbolt takeaways for consideration and life application.

In the conclusion of our conversation with Sergeant Aaron Quinonez (Sgt. Q), we learn about his long road towards getting diagnosed with PTSD and his advice for anyone dealing with a mental health crisis. Additionally, Sgt. Q shares his insights on how the faith-based community can better support those struggling with mental health issues. Also, we ask Sgt. Q for his list of things NOT to do when going through a hard time.

In this special episode, we talk with Sergeant Aaron Quinonez (Sgt. Q) about his personal journey in overcoming childhood trauma, homelessness, two tours of duty in Iraq, PTSD, and suicidal ideation to living a life of service and mental health advocacy. Sgt. Q has turned his experiences with trauma into a calling, helping fellow veterans find healing through his award winning non-profit, Q-Missions. Sgt. Q recalls his early childhood trauma and how it further impacted his time serving in Iraq. He candidly discusses what it is like to suffer from PTSD. He explains the feeling of inadequacy that led him to becoming suicidal and how a small action by a friend served as the intervention in suicidal thoughts.

Were two hard-fought decades in Afghanistan all for nothing? As a veteran, how do I respond to the loss of peace I fought so hard to protect? As an American citizen, how can I honor and support those who have sacrificed and suffered so deeply to protect and provide 20 years of peace? In this episode, Pastor Rob Kettering joins the podcast to encourage warriors in the aftermath of the United States withdrawal from Afghanistan, and to share from personal experience and investment how other church and business leaders can offer their support to military veterans and their families. Being the son of a military sergeant, Rob's dream was to be a Navy pilot. He didn't make it past the screening - slight color blindness stopped the dream at the start. Led down a different path, Rob's faith led him to the Amazon jungle basin to serve the poorest of the poor. Sleeping in the rainforest under a mosquito net, Rob heard the call from God to be a pastor and to focus on reaching the world with good. After attending bible school, Rob became a pastor and eventually founded River Valley Church in an elementary school in 1995. Under Rob's leadership the church has grown into a thriving church with nearly 10,000 in attendance across its eight U.S. campuses. In addition, the church under Rob's tenure has given away over $45,000,000 to outside organizations and relief efforts all around the world, including The Warrior's Journey.

We're back for Part 2 of a conversation between Kevin Weaver of The Warrior's Journey, photographer Lloyd Smith, and veteran Bill McGee as he reflects on his experiences in Vietnam. On Jan. 17th, 1969, Bill McGee was 10 months into a deployment in Vietnam when his life changed forever: during a battle in the Ben Cat district, he jumped out of his armed personnel carrier directly onto a land mine. The explosion cost him one of his legs, and after receiving the last of three Purple Hearts during all the action he had endured, Bill was sent home and received an artificial leg. Like so many Vietnam veterans, Bill didn't receive a hero's welcome, but a feeling of rejection as he reintegrated into American society, only adding to his pain. However, through embarking on a journey of faith and learning to share his story, Bill discovered healing and wholeness. During Bill's time in Vietnam, he took hundreds of photos with a Kodak 126 Instamatic camera. Half a century later, over 800 of those photos have been brought to life thanks to a partnership with friend and avid photographer Lloyd Smith. The photos and the response to them have helped speed up his emotional healing process and serve as a reminder of a pivotal time in his life. To see his 1968 photos, as well as other wartime memorabilia, go to https://photos.app.goo.gl/ygdZSsOEM84kt4P83.  If you are a Vietnam Veteran, and have pictures you would like to share, please send to Lloyd Smith at Lsmithtwin@comcast.net Find more information online at https://www.thewarriorsjourney.org/podcast.

As a senior non-commissioned officer of Delta Force, Command Sergeant Major Tom Satterly fought some of this country's most fearsome enemies. Now, he sits down to share his story with The Warrior's Journey! Over the course of twenty years and thousands of missions, Tom became a legend even among other Tier One special operators. Yet the enemy that cost him three marriages, and ruined his health physically and psychologically, existed in his brain, and the fallout from his battle with PTS nearly led him to kill himself in 2014. With the help of his wife, Tom learned that by admitting his weaknesses and faults, he sets an example for other combat veterans struggling to come home. He has since embarked on his most important mission: saving the lives of his brothers and sisters in arms who are killing themselves at a rate of more than twenty a day. In Tom's words, "You have to be vulnerable to be courageous" – and he encourages listeners to lead with love, not fear.

In this episode, Kevin Weaver and Rob Stone sit down for a candid, vulnerable, and sometimes uncomfortable conversation about something that is universally experienced, but rarely brought out into the light of day to be unpacked: sexual struggles and sin. Pornography has never been more accessible, and we live in a world that is driven by a perverted understanding of sex. The reality is, sexuality goes way beyond the physical–it's matter of the heart, and our indulgence in it outside of God's design can leave emotional and spiritual scars that stick with us for a lifetime. But, there's hope! No matter how strong sin's grip may be on our hearts, the power of God's work in our lives is stronger, and He is able to heal us and set us free.   To hear more of Rob's incredible story and profound insights, check out episodes 45, 46, 55, and 56 of the podcast, and be sure to pick up a copy of his new book, Your Dad Loves You!, on The Warrior's Journey website and Amazon now!
