EPISODE 151
All’s Well…If We Make it Well
Wellness isn’t just a soft and fuzzy term bandied about in the Human Resources department. Healthier, happier employees perform better, and in professions where the rubber meets the road, wellness is tactical. The trite concept of Work/Life balance isn’t so trite when lives are on the line. How do you keep yourself all happy and centered and still put in the grind to do the work? Listen to this episode to hear some ideas.

National Security Strategy Review
This episode focuses on helping listeners understand where tactical action fits inside national-level strategy. Jim breaks down key themes, regional priorities, and notable shifts in emphasis, then explains what those signals may mean for military professionals, law enforcement leaders, and anyone operating inside large institutions. The goal is not agreement or disagreement, but comprehension—because understanding the strategy is a prerequisite to operating effectively within it.
The Pen is Mightier Than The Sword… sometimes
This episode explores why communication is not a soft skill—but a core professional competency. Mike and Jim break down how narratives form, spread, and harden in high-stress environments, and why organizations that fail to tell their own story often lose control of it. From each of their own real-world experiences, they show how storytelling affects trust, cooperation, and institutional survival.
