What drives someone to leave behind a turbulent past and rise to become a Green Beret? This episode features Joey Paladino, whose journey from the National Guard to elite military status is nothing short of inspiring. Joey's story is a powerful testament to resilience as he recounts his intense experiences from the Q course graduation to the battlefields of Afghanistan. We explore how his adaptability and determination under fire laid the foundation for his remarkable military career, underscoring the importance of mentorship and the unique camaraderie among soldiers.
But Joey's journey doesn't end on the battlefield. Transitioning from military life to civilian endeavors, he finds a new calling as a gym owner and weightlifting coach. Joey shares the parallels between military team-building and coaching high school athletes, drawing from his experience to foster strong, cohesive teams in the gym. His passion for teaching and his dedication to community growth shine through as he reflects on how the leadership skills honed in the Special Forces apply seamlessly to his new role.
