Temporada 1

Episode 13, Mentorship

After a hiatus from the Podcast Mr. A Lee Thomas reignites the SPUG 9 by bringing you Mentorship. After seeing how tough transitioning from the military into the civilian sector really is, Lee had to overcome some personal obstacles, and he could not have done so without a few folks along the way. Who? His mentors, who would also become mentees. That's spuggin' friendship, folks! But don't get it twisted! You don't have to be friends to be a mentor or mentee, you just have to have a good rapport, which is one of the things Lee talks about in this episode! So, leave a like, hit subscribe, or better yet, follow him on Instagram @The_ALeeT_Podcast!

Failure = Discipline

After a 10-day hiatus, Mr. ALeeT is back on the mic. This time, it's raw and personal. We dive into failures both big and small, and the discipline it takes to get back up every time. From missed opportunities to lessons learned the hard way, he breaks down why failure isn't the end, it's the training ground for resilience. Expect stories, insights, and a rally cry to turn setbacks into strength--and to be challenged in how you see failure. Because discipline isn't about perfection, it's about persistence.

Clarity w/Dena Armstrong

In this episode of The ALeeT Podcast, we dive into the Tenet of Clarity—learning how to cut through the noise and see ourselves more fully. I’m joined by special guest Dena Armstrong (@cosmicyoga_bydena), who brings a unique blend of insight on trauma recovery, yoga, alternative healing, and even the wisdom of the stars. Together, we explore what it means to find clarity of purpose and clarity of thought—how our experiences, habits, and even the struggles we juggle every day can either cloud us or refine us. From confronting past wounds to embracing spiritual practices, this conversation shines a light on how to align your inner vision with your outer life. ✨ Follow Dena on IG: @cosmicyoga_bydena ✨ Follow me on IG: @The_ALeeT_Podcast Stay tuned, stay grounded, and above all—Stay Spuggin’ ALeeT.

Pride

In this episode of The ALeeT Podcast, we continue our journey through the Tenets of SPUG (Strength, Power, Unity, Growth) with one of the most misunderstood values: Pride. Pride isn’t arrogance—it’s identity, integrity, community, and fire for our goals. Lee breaks down Pride across five dimensions: · Identity – Owning your truth and rejecting what doesn’t align with it. · Actions – Holding the line on your standards when no one’s watching. · Emotions – Learning from both praise and disappointment without letting either control you. · Community & Heritage – Standing with pride for your people, culture, and collective roots. · Goals – Turning words into vows, anchored by self-respect and resilience. This episode dives deep into personal stories, raw truths, and reflections on how Pride shapes the way we live, love, and lead. It’s about knowing not only who you are, but also who you are not. 🌍 Special Note: Lee is walking in the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention event this month.

Accountability vs. Blame

Welcome back to The ALeeT Podcast! This week, we're tackling a topic that hits every area of life: Accountability vs. Blame. Everyone loves to point fingers, but true accountability means owning your actions, emotions, and responsibilities, without passing the buck. In this episode, we cover: Accountability & Goals: Why SMART goals aren't enough if you don't adapt (hello, P.R.I.M.E.R. method). Life Roles: From parenting to pet ownership to paying bills. What accountability looks like in everyday life. Your Actions: Why owning mistakes builds trust, and how blame just wastes time. Your Emotions: Emotional intelligence = owning your reactions, not matching someone else's chaos. Military Lessons: How core values and debriefs drilled accountability into me, and how it applies to everyone. Football Analogy: Football is back, baby! Why life is like carrying the ball, and why nobody else can hold it for you. Key Takeaway: Accountability isn't punishment--it's ownership. And ownership is freedom. Call-to-Action: This week, jump on Instagram @The_ALeeT_Podcast and drop a comment: A time you should have held yourself accountable but didn't. A time you did hold yourself accountable. A time you held someone else accountable. Because staying Spuggin' ALeeT means owning the ball and not fumbling your strength, power, unity, or growth (SPUG).

SPUG + Goal Setting

After a 1-week hiatus, Mr. ALeeT is back — and he’s spittin’ SPUG & settin’ goals! 💥 In this episode, we break down the power of SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound) and show how they align perfectly with the SPUG framework: Strength, Power, Unity, and Growth. You’ll hear: Why vague goals lead to vague results 🚫 How to structure SMART goals that actually stick The connection between SMART goals and living salubriously (aka in a way that uplifts and sustains you) Real-world examples you can use today to crush your personal + professional milestones Mr. ALeeT reminds us that setting goals isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress, persistence, and purpose. So grab your notebook, jot down your SPUG-fueled SMART goals, and let’s level up together. 🚀

Social Wellness with Dave Suszko

In this episode of The ALeeT Podcast, we explore the Social Pillar of Wellness, what it means to build a meaningful tribe, navigate Dunbar layers, and stay connected in a post-pandemic world. My guest is Dave Suszko, a fellow veteran, space professional, and deep thinker on human connection, trust, and resilience. Together, we talk about evolving social norms, tribe dynamics, and how self-growth shapes the people we attract.
