Fuel For Warriors Timothy Lawson

Alex Heaton is a Marine Corps veteran that has begun work in support of deported veterans. This is a segment of the veteran community that I had never considered or learned about. So, when I heard Alex had experience, I immediately invited him on to talk about it.  Lock-N-Load Java has re-branded to Alpha Coffee. Same great company, same great coffee, just a different look on the packaging. Go to www.alpha.coffee to check them out. Enjoy the show and stay tuned for more Fuel For Warriors!!!

Sekou Andrews is a very passionate and motivating person. I first heard about him on the Tim Ferriss Show, and when I watched one of his TED Talks I knew I had to have him on the show. Sekou and I had some scheduling complications, and then some technology issues, but we ultimately made it happen and I'm so glad we did. He's talks with us about what it means to be a warrior, his routine before a speaking engagement, and how we can all get the best out of ourselves. If you're inspired by Sekou, you need to check out his webinar that he's hosting on October 18th. Click here for information on that event. Thanks for listening and be sure to thank Sekou on Twitter for joining us. @SekouAndrews @TimLawson21 @LockNLoadJava

This week's warrior is Army veteran Michael Le Buhn. Michael is a stand up comedian in the Champagne, Illinois area. He served in the Army before pursuing comedy, and received a Purple Heart when he was wounded in Iraq. Michael joined me on the 1, 2, Many: Veteran Suicide podcast a while back, and I wrote a story on him for VA's Vantage Point blog. Now, he's here to share his thoughts on the warrior ethos, comedy, bombing at a show, his challenges, and his inspirations. "We're the ones that run towards the sounds of explosions," Michael said. Be sure to follow Michael and the team on Twitter and let us know what you think of the interview. @Michaellebuhn @TimLawson21 @LockNLoadJava @LawsonEntertain

This week's warrior is Army veteran Adam Linehan. Adam Linehan is a senior staff writer for Task & Purpose. Between 2006-2012, he served as a combat medic in the U.S. Army, and is a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan. Prior to joining Task & Purpose, Adam was a staff editor at Maxim. Adam joins us to talk about being a post-military veteran, his transition, writing at Task & Purpose, the veteran space, what it means to be a warrior, what challenges he faces, and what ultimately inspires him. "It's about believing in something bigger than yourself," Adam said.
