Send us a textReflecting on a milestone journey, we are thrilled to welcome back our mentor and dear friend, Joseph McClendon III, a distinguished neuropsychologist and ultimate performance specialist. With Joseph by my side, we celebrate the 100th episode of our podcast by sharing the invaluable lessons we've learned along the way. As we reminisce, we also express our heartfelt dedication to supporting military veterans and their families, inspired by the legacies of our fathers who served in the military. This episode promises to inspire and encourage those looking for ways to contribute to meaningful change in the lives of others.Transitioning from military service to civilian life presents a complex set of challenges, and we tackle this topic head-on. Through a personal story of my father, a Vietnam War veteran, we highlight the enduring impact of military conditioning and the struggles veterans face when these ingrained responses clash with civilian life. We examine the critical importance of robust support systems to help veterans navigate these internal battles and avoid isolation. Our discussion aims to provide insights and tools for veterans and their families to foster reintegration and wellness.Empowerment is key, and our conversation underscores the transformative power of self-belief, gratitude, and small daily actions. We explore practical techniques for overcoming limiting beliefs and celebrating personal victories as a way to foster a positive mindset. Joseph and I share strategies for recognizing and replacing unhelpful thoughts with productive ones, creating a ripple effect that strengthens family bonds and uplifts those around us. Join us in this heartfelt discussion as we explore the significance of celebrating success and the profound impact it can have on personal growth and community wellness.PLATE & PONDER: EMPTY NESTING w/ Jen & Chris FentonWith a wine buzz, an empty-nesting married couple tackles a full plate of global issues.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the show
