Note sull'episodio
In the first episode of the Eagle Ops Podcast, co-founder Jessica Shepherd sits down with her husband and Marine Corps veteran and Eagle Ops co-founder Johnathon "Shep" Shepherd to share the founder story behind one of Oklahoma's most active veteran nonprofits. Shep walks through his journey from a single-mom household in Catoosa, to enlisting in the Marine Corps after a recruiter challenged him with one question, to becoming a meritoriously promoted Sergeant in 34 months. He opens up about the hardest years after transitioning home: the isolation, the struggle, and the night in September 2007 that became the turning point. From that moment, Shep and Jessica began building what would eventually become Eagle Ops: a nonprofit reaching veterans and their families across Oklahoma through Rally Points designed to fight loneliness and isolation, the two biggest threats to veteran wellness. If you're a veteran or family member feeling alone, this episode is for you.
