Post-traumatic growth, healthy masculinity, aesthetic lifestyle. Entrepreneur. A combat vet who’d almost given up. #veteranowned #miltwitter #infantry INTJ 6’4”

Just an imperfect combat vet rediscovering myself and my place in the world as I transition into the elder warrior phase of life, and hoping to positively impact others along the journey.

I was embedded as an adviser to the Bundeswehr in AFG. Their medics and some officers carried Heckler and Koch MP7’s. Too cool! The rest of us carried G36 rifles.

Life is about negotiating - with yourself, and with others. You NEVER get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.

Mistakes All Losers Make - They stop learning - They complain a lot - They don't take responsibility - They don't have vison or goals - They always try to please everyone - They blame others for their problems What would you add?



Was glad to have a short phone convo today and meet @valor4us Kristin Beck. Thanks Kristin!

Your first month dieting isn’t about weight loss. Your first month exercising isn’t about building muscle. Your first months are about ONE thing only: Building the habits that form the foundation of a new lifestyle.


Embedded Counterinsurgency advisor with the Bundeswehr in Kunduz, AFG. I’m the 6’4 beard. The guy to my left is 6’8”. I carried a #hecklerandkoch G36 rifle and USP sidearm. Every German company had a bar and foosball tables lol! #miltwitter #masculinity #warrior #fuckthetaliban

You all realize that those guys you're buying ebooks from to learn how to be men have numerous alts & talk to themselves all day, right?


What is the best platform for selling IP protected courses online to law enforcement, a mixture of video lecture, PowerPoint and multimedia presentations? Looking at @teachable and @thinkific right now.

This would revolutionize the lives of thousands of combat veterans with PTSD.

Prescribing anti depressants should be illegal until a person fixes their diet and starts working out for Atleast a month.

Men who tweet "always keep a side chick" followed by a tweet saying "not to date damaged girls", are so ignorant to the cause & effect they help orchestrate. How do people lack this much self-awareness? You, pleighboi not dating damaged girls, are 1 reason for the damage 🤦‍♀️


Men need tribes at every phase of their lives. I know for certain this is true for Veterans who have experienced real combat, and the loss of comrades. Isolation kills, as I have seen personally. #endveteransuicide #masculinity

Most manospher gurus: Lift all the weights, make all the money & date all the girls. Real men: Be strong, work hard so that you can love & care for others in their time of need & protect those who need protecting. Thread:👇🏼

Some thoughts on manhood as I sit at church: I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer. She’s a single mother who adopted two young girls with special needs years ago.

Let's see every member of Congress' investment portfolios. Then let's cross-reference their level of panicked demagoguery with the amount of exposure their money has to Chinese manufacturing/investments. Anyone with a tight correlation gets their mouths duct-taped shut.


My great-grandfather shot this lion, at the age of 72, from a distance of 6 feet after it jumped out of some brush, mauled the local guide, and knocked him on his ass.

Enjoying a Project Odyssey with @wwp this week in St. Augustine, Florida. Everyone needs a tribe. #woundedwarriorproject #miltwitter


I feared doing the work and the intentionality and vulnerability it required for me to go through the process of bouncing back from severe combat PTS. I believe for guys like me vulnerability is the showstopper. Once I accepted that my progress started.

If you spend your entire life with the mentality of “my trauma f-ed me up and that’s why I am the way I am”, instead of learning to heal and grow from your trauma, YOU are the problem Thoughts? -inspired by Nutrition Vixen



Thank you @CathyYoung63 for writing about the overreaction to “boy” masculinity, which throws the baby out with the bath water, and which do not recognize the evolutionary adaptations that allow for a strong, healthy “man” masculinity. arcdigital.media/boys-feminism-…
