  • Summary

  • Join Melon, Mike and Raf in their effort to push back against the chaos of life. Join these three close friends, who engage in very real, very raw, and transparent conversations about work, love, family, and everything in between. Their goal is simple. Help everyone listening by learning from their mistakes and victories, because we’re in this together. All three, veterans of multiple Middle East combat tours, two as pilots, one as a Special Operations soldier. In lock step, they are making their own effort to create a framework for anyone looking to push back against the chaos and optimize their own lives. They don’t claim to have all the answers, but they are willing to share what has worked and what has not, during their journeys.

    PBC: 077 - Actionable pathways for Change
    May 2 2024
    “If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.” - Lao Tzu “Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change.” - Jim Rohn Change often has a bad reputation. We fear the unknown, and change carries some aspect of the unknown. But if we don’t change, we cannot adapt ourselves to a changing world- we will remain static and stuck. Both your hosts are in the midst of major life upheavals and changes. Join them as they discuss strategies to both improve the motivation to act when change is necessary, and frameworks that they have used in both military and personal settings. They both have extensive experience with implementing successful change processes, and with teaching them to pilots and Special Forces operators. A true test of an effective process is one that can be used with professional military and aviation colleagues, and work just as effectively with your family. You will hear examples of how to build motivation to take the first step, and they will cover COL John Boyd’s OODA Loop, and the alternate CSIM models.

    This week, Mike welcomes a surprise guest., SGT Allen Weddington. A friend and teammate who he hasn't seen since his Afghanistan employment in 2012! In this episode, you’ll hear some shared stories from their time together in Afghanistan. Conversations about engagements, creating a family environment, to losing teammates in combat. The main focus of this discussion is what happens after it’s all over. What is our purpose? What is our identity? What do we do now? How do I deal with the wounds that no one can see? Allen shares everything. The struggles, the confusion, the doubt, the thoughts of self-harm, but also the resurrection of his new life and purpose. A truly heartfelt story of overcoming our fears and rebuilding a better life that we could have never imagined. You do not want to miss this episode!!

  • PBC, 075 - Gratitude & Integrity: From Failure to success

    PBC, 075 - Gratitude & Integrity: From Failure to success
    Apr 15 2024
    Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. - Melody Beattie Life throws up challenges for all of us. The challenges ARE life. There is no escaping them. How can we work through these and manifest our best selves to create the life we want to live? Mike and Melon are certainly no strangers to life’s big challenges- special forces training, operational deployments, finding love, parenting special needs family members, moving a family around the world… These and many more challenges are part of their lives. In these hardest times, both Mike and Melon have found their way through to being their best selves when they have maintained a state of gratitude. Focusing on the blessings in our lives shifts something for all of us- it has us find the creativity and strength that we need to find solutions. Building integrity- treating your word as your bond- has been the only way to have a foundation to stand on when moving forward in the world. An element of this is restoring integrity when the inevitable breakdowns occur- making things right with the people affected. When we face the big challenges- the times when we are suffering- but we are able to maintain both gratitude and integrity, we access our highest states of capabilities. This will have us move from failure to success when we need it most.
