In a deeply personal episode, host Joey "Devil Doc Talk" Martinez sits down with guest Dan Litzenberger to hear his powerful origin story. Inspired to join the Army after 9/11, Dan recounts how he found his identity as an elite Ranger sniper, completing six rigorous combat deployments.
But when a medical retirement for an autoimmune disorder abruptly ended his career and his dream of joining Delta Force, he lost his sense of purpose. Despite finding external success training elite teams at his Bull Hill Ranch, Dan candidly shares his internal battle with addiction, depression, and spiraling behavior.
This episode explores the spiritual turning point that made Dan realize he was called to build a healing ranch, not a marksmanship ranch. Dan walks listeners through the diverse, unconventional, and spiritual modalities—from jiu-jitsu with the We Defy Foundation and work with a shaman in Maui, to building a foundational relationship with Christ—that helped him find true peace and fulfillment.
Hear the full, honest story of how Dan rebuilt his life and channeled that healing into a new mission: The Ranch Foundation, dedicated to uniting veteran mental health organizations under one banner. #love #god #jesus #army #navy #marines #airforce #coastguard #spaceforce #faith #youtube
