  • Great episode!

    I have been listening to this podcast for a bit now, and it has been a breath of fresh air!

    Nov 22nd episode was great to listen to! Thank you both! Having transitioned to the Reserves a few months ago has been so challenging and although I think I am doing okay, the identity crisis is real!
