Welcome to "The Collective," where we embark on the journey of daily betterment and living our best lives. Join our diverse panel discussions with individuals from various backgrounds, all striving for personal growth.
In this episode, we're honored to host Tip Cullen, a former UK Royal Marines Commando now actor; Jason Cheney, a former US Army soldier and Police SWAT Officer now tactics trainer and night vision specialist; and Pat Miller, a former Canadian JTF2 member now movie armourer and photographer. Together, they share invaluable lessons on "Putting Down the Sword."
The guests reflect on the challenges of stepping away from roles where conflict and danger were ever-present, and how they found meaning and fulfillment in their post-service lives. From channeling discipline into artistic expression, like acting and photography, to mentoring others through training and storytelling, they reveal the importance of adaptability, self-reflection, and finding ways to contribute beyond the battlefield.
The episode emphasizes the growth that comes from setting aside the literal and figurative "sword" while continuing to apply the values of service, perseverance, and excellence in new arenas. It’s a testament to the resilience of those who transform their skills and experiences into tools for building a brighter future.
