As the spouse of a combat-injured Marine, a mom of five, and the manager of the Warrior Week program at Camp Southern Ground, Megan Murphy is passionate about helping Veterans in their transformational and well-being journeys.
In this week's conversation, Megan reminds us that we all need a reason to get out of bed in the morning, put our feet on the ground and smile. That "something to do" often emerges as Purpose, which can be identified through assessments such as Gallup's CliftonStrengths and the Enneagram test, so we can create - or recreate - who we are in the world.
Megan is on a mission to help develop people on better journeys for themselves and ensure purposeful connection. With the powerful reminder that telling our stories can often be the next page in someone else's survival guide, Megan has learned that we can't understand the mountaintop views, and the beauty of them, if we don't understand the deepest of valleys first.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
