“I love getting immersed into a story…that’s completely separate from reality.”

Garett Cross

Hello everyone, welcome to Episode 6 of the “Spotlight Podcast: Success Stories for Veterans” where it is our job to breakdown and analyze Titans in both the military and civilian communities to discover their tactics, mindset, and systems so that you can apply them to your life. Those titans range from NYT best-selling authors, to former heads of state, to other divergent thinkers who dominate their field by challenging conventional wisdom.

Today we are interviewing Garett Cross.

In addition to being a contributor to the Spotlight Podcast, Garett is also one of the rare breeds of people to have a very successful and seamless military transition without running into the existential crisis many of us experience. Garett has excellent insight into keeping things together while transitioning out of the military.

So how does he do it? Listen and find out.
