This episode of Silent Service explores the deeper meaning of work, purpose, and progress. Through a MEPS check-in and honest conversation, Matt and Will reflect on why the journey often matters more than the destination, challenging the pull of hollow success. A parable about John D. Rockefeller reframes work as a gift, not a curse, and a listener question from a 23-year-old opens the door to timeless advice on calling and clarity. With a quote of the day and insights on growth, it’s an invitation to rediscover the beauty of the climb.
