We're taught to see leadership as an abstract undertaking, a matter of vision and values rather than practical detail. Combat demands more and requires self-reflection and empathy from the leader. In this episode we sit down with the fellas from Brigands Co. and talk about the differences and challenges of leading in different situations, including combat, and the challenges that go along with that.

One Team, One Fight is the name of a beer brewed by veteran Matt Berger, but it also represents how veterans should join together to support one another post military transition as they did while on active duty. Matt served eight years in the U.S. Army (2006-2014) as a mechanic with one tour in Afghanistan (09-10) with the 82nd Airborne Division. He separated the Army and after a while ended up at Line Creek Brewing Co., where he began brewing beer. The brewery decided that they wanted to create a beer and support local veteran non-profits. They asked Matt to lead the effort to create a great tasting beer for this fundraiser. We discuss the impact that this creation had on Matt, his role in the process, and how what he does today helps him deal with the invisible wounds of combat.

On January of 2019, Meyli Chapin was trapped in a hotel room in the DusitD2 in Nairobi for seventeen long hours while Al-Shabaab terrorists attacked the property. She was completely alone, and certain she was going to die. However, thanks to the incomprehensibly brave men who fought to get us out, led by now-retired UK SAS (Special Air Service) operator Christian Craighead, hundreds were extracted to safety. After the attack, though, PTSD made Meyli so miserable that she started to wish she had died after all. Aside from the terrorist attack itself, PTSD is the hardest thing she have ever dealt with in her life. In this episode, we'll discuss her book which covers the in-depth retelling of the attack, combined with her personal journal entries about PTSD afterward. It's a true story about trauma. About how dark and ugly it can be. Because the unfortunate truth is: the vast majority of us will experience a traumatic event in our lives.
