  • 125. Peace After War: Why You're Addicted to Chaos and What It Actually Takes to Let Go
    Jan 5 2026

    Most veterans don't miss war. They miss the chaos.

    In this episode, Juan Perez opens up about the moment he stopped chasing chaos, identity, and titles and started building peace for real. From Scout Sniper to undercover cop to full-time coach, Juan shares the painful truth of why recognition never healed him and why peace is something you have to create, not wait for.

    If you're stuck in the old operating system—drinking, distracted, addicted to movement—this episode is your wake-up call.

    "Peace after war isn't handed to you. You build it. You fight for it. And it has always been yours."

  • 124. 3 Years, 300 Clients, 1 Lesson: Own Your Life.
    Oct 16 2025

    You didn't lose your identity when you got out—you just kept trying to lead in a world where no one asked you to.

    In this episode, Juan Perez breaks down what really happens when veterans refuse to let go of the military version of responsibility—and how it becomes the very thing that holds them back.

    This one's about control, identity loss, self-abandonment, and what it means to truly rebuild when no one is watching. Juan shares how losing his career twice (once as a Marine, once as an undercover cop) forced him to confront the one thing he never wanted to face: himself.

    You'll also hear:

    • Why you need to stop trying to fix everyone around you

    • How "ownership" beats "leadership" in civilian life

    • The 4 rules Juan lives by to create peace and progress

    • The biggest lies we believe about being a veteran

    • A raw behind-the-scenes update on parenting, coaching, and finding purpose again

    This is one of Juan's most personal episodes yet. Part lesson, part update, all truth.

    "You're not in charge anymore. But if you do it right, that might be the best thing that ever happened to you."

  • 123. You're Not in the Lonely Chapter Yet
    Oct 10 2025

    Most veterans think they're in their lonely chapter, but they're not. They're still surrounded by the same people holding them back. This episode exposes what the real lonely chapter looks like... and why it's the only way to truly level up.

    You're not alone. You're just finally on your own.
