It is safe to say that I have wandered a bit. I served in the military, flew some jets, jumped out of most, climbed mountains (I jumped off of them too), taught fitness, owned a gym, and have spent the last few years speaking to organizations and leaders.

Pretty good pod
First off great show and I appreciate you looking for perspectives from everyone. Now Dr. Miller, not a lot of proof in the pudding.
