I'm 24 episodes into this adventure with Project VetCast and I can say that I'm really enjoying this. I'm still figuring things out, but it'll probably always remain that way.

Here's what keeps me going:

1. Project VetCast has helped me connect with 15 veterans. 4 of which I've served with before.

2. It has been played in 12 countries and 4 continents.

3. I've learned a lot listening to all 15 Veterans tell their stories. From the difference between branches, mindset and mentality to separation and the challenges everyone has gone through to transition out of the military.

4. The Veteran Community is AWESOME. When we work together, we can accomplish anything!

Keep thriving guys. You're doing great, no matter where you are on your journey!

And as always, if there's a Veteran you want me to give a shout out to or a Veteran I should interview, let me know!
