Abington, MA Veterans Service Officer, Adam Gunn connected me to Foxborough, MA Veterans Service Officer Ally Rodriguez. I learned a lot and would encourage spouses of Veterans to listen and watch this conversation. Ally served in the Army and being an Army wife at the time of her transition gave her perspective about the challenges spouses face providing care to Veterans. As a result of navigating the VA systems as a spouse, found an opportunity to become a Veterans Service Officer. Serving Veterans is a purpose with Ally, not just a paycheck. She believes that we as Veterans can be our best advocate if we educate ourselves about how these systems work. You can get some real-world information about Veterans benefits and a laugh or two at the same time, by checking out Ally on Instagram, @allysaysnope.
Adam, I appreciate the connection. Thank you for talking with me Ally and all the best!

I met Heather through James Van Prooyen’s Veterans Business Hour. Heather is a U.S. Army Veteran and now does business coaching. Business coaching from Heather’s point of view is identifying what you want to do with your business and executing on that vision.
That is done through Automation, Accountability, and Action Steps. These all roll into something Heather calls the Digital Warrior Movement. As you will hear Heather did some coaching during our conversation and already her advice is paying off.
I am looking forward to success and I am glad Heather was there at the beginning.
You can contact Heather by going to www.digitalwarriorhq.com or emailing her at hello@bygrove.com
Thank you for the great conversation, I can’t wait to see what happens next!

I met Ben back in 2018 and he came on Oscar Mike Radio for #109 (https://oscarmikeradio.com/episode-109-get-up-nation/). At the time Ben, had published the book “Get Up” (https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B071P4FWDG&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_ICfuFb2F4W1MC) and talked to me about that experience.
In the last year Ben has been focused on the concept of Get Up Nation. This is where a group of people who have had to be resilient share their stories on his podcast, “Get Up Nation Show”. What is happening is there are many stories that one can draw from to understand how to overcome adversity. Stories that when you down or feeling hopeless, you and listen and get some light in your life.
This has worked for me and I want to thank Ben for sharing what he has been doing and how this all works. Because as a nation, together we can GET UP. Go to https://www.getupnationpodcast.com/ to find out more.
