Veteran Made by Carey Kight hits differently. Carey, an Air Force vet turned creative entrepreneur, chats with fellow veterans forging bold, post‑military paths—from authors and filmmakers to small‑business founders—sharing big lessons on resilience, identity, and reinvention.
Listened to the episode with Marty, great stuff and excited to go through some past episodes as well as keep up with new!
Thank you for what you are doing here, Carey. This show is the kind of content vets need. I think this inspires veterans to take on new challenges and to put the work in to see themselves succeed. Kudos for bringing guests on that help foster that mentality. 🇺🇸🫡🎖️
Carey has given me a completely different perspective on military life and the challenges that vets face during and after service. He adds humanity and nuance to what can sometimes be perceived as a faceless group within the US and it has resulted in a new found respect, admiration and empathy from this non vet. Love this pod!
Keep up the good work ‼️
