About this listen
In this episode of Veteran Led, host John S. Berry sits down with MG (Ret.) Dusty Shultz, a trailblazing Army officer who’s redefining what leadership looks like after service. From director of intelligence at SOUTHCOM to her current mission advising companies and empowering teams, Dusty brings clarity, compassion, and candor to every conversation.
With more than three decades in uniform—and a transition plan that started three years before retirement—Dusty offers hard-earned wisdom on navigating change with intention. She shares what it means to lead without ego, build trust at speed, and stay mission-focused even when the mission shifts.
Together, John and Dusty explore the realities of senior leadership, the toll of transition, and the urgent need to prepare for life beyond the rank. She also opens up about losing a fellow general officer to suicide—and how that loss reshaped her purpose moving forward.
Whether you're preparing to separate, leading in uncertain terrain, or simply looking for a new perspective on resilience, this episode delivers insight, heart, and a powerful reminder: your service isn't over—it’s evolving.
