Summary In this conversation, Tosh and Wesley explore various themes including the importance of mindset, the challenges of balancing life and work, and the significance of leadership in both sports and personal development. They discuss the impact of isolation on veterans, the necessity of self-reflection, and the ways to maintain positivity in life. The dialogue emphasizes the value of community, communication, and the need for mental flexibility in navigating life's challenges. Takeaways People often misjudge Tosh as overly military and strict. Empathy and relatability are crucial in leadership. Training and instinct play a role in handling combat situations. Mindset influences how one perceives challenges and leadership. Stereotypes about veterans can hinder understanding and growth. Authentic leadership comes from being true to oneself. Personal growth is a continuous journey, not confined to past experiences. Finding common ground with others fosters better relationships. Leadership is about being someone worth respecting. Values and principles guide effective leadership. Statistically, most people share commonalities despite differences. A fixed mindset can hinder personal growth and understanding. Actions often reveal more about a person than their words. Isolation can lead to negative outcomes, especially for veterans. Balancing work and personal life requires constant adaptation. Intention is more important than talent in teamwork. Self-reflection is crucial for personal development. Addressing root causes of issues is key to long-term solutions. Maintaining positivity involves checking in with oneself.

This episode is one of those moments that proves nothing ever goes exactly as planned. But sometimes that's exactly how things turn out for the best. Today's conversation was supposed to be smooth sailing, but we had some technical difficulties during this interview that it cut into our conversation. But we're not here to dwell on the glitches. Instead, we're here to bring you a real, raw conversation with two incredible individuals who have both served in the military and are still living with purpose after the uniform comes off. So with little a little bit of a bumpy start, I'm excited to sit down with doc, Chris Aliano and Todd Neibauer. Uh, two men I have deep respect for and close connections with.
I want to start today by talking about something that's close to my heart, something that matters beyond business or personal achievements. It's about fighting a battle that no one else can see. My friends and I have lost too many Marines to suicide men who were strong, driven and capable, but who in their darkest moments thought there was no way out. Today's episode is about light in the darkness. It's about people who've lived through hard times and are now writing to remind others you are not alone. Welcome to earned Not Given. This show is about discipline, work, and legacy. But today it's about healing, community, and staying alive. I'm your host, Wesley Warner, Marine Corps veteran, business owner, husband and father. Today's episode is something special. I'm joined by Jason and Angela White, the co-founders of writing twenty two in twenty two. It's a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness about veteran suicide, and it's providing peer support to veterans and their families. They've been on the front lines of this issue for years, taking their own experiences, turning that into a mission of saving lives. Together, they're writing for those who feel like they can't go on and reminding them they're not alone.
Nobody ever went broke because they were disciplined. But a lot of men are stuck, stressed and broke because they're trying to be liked. This episode is why being the nice guy is killing your business, and why men who avoid conflict, they don't build anything that lasts.
In this episode of Earned Not Given, Marine veteran Alex Dobson shares his journey through two Iraq deployments, combat missions, IEDs, rebuilding life after service, using the GI Bill at MMI, and helping veterans navigate benefits through the American Legion.
Interview with Kyle Carpenter Air Traffic Controller USAF.
Some people talk about work. Some people live it. Today’s episode is about a man who never waited for opportunity — he created it. He grew up with very little, started working before most kids had jobs, and built a life through consistency, motion, and responsibility. He’s my father — Boyd Warner. This is Built From Nothing.
