Here’s something we don’t talk about enough: the overwhelming challenge of transitioning from military life to civilian identity. How to navigate a system that throws resources at you without real guidance, which leads to confusion, loss of purpose, and even despair. Adam takes us on a journey from hitting rock bottom to discovering plant medicine. He opens up on how he found authenticity, healing, and a renewed identity through the importance of investing in oneself before being able to help others. And now he helps others do the same by leveraging community and technology. ______ Adam Peters operates at the intersection of tech, transformation, and truth. He is unapologetic about challenging broken systems and helping people take their next mission into their own hands. Adam is a veteran, entrepreneur, and host of The Strategic Veteran podcast, where he dives deep into the hard truths of transition and reinvention.  As the CAIO of Alset Technologies, he builds AI automation systems that help entrepreneurs and small businesses reclaim their time, streamline operations, and scale with intention.  Also, he is a partner at Amakaya, a plant medicine retreat in the Peruvian Amazon, serving veterans, first responders, and their families through deep healing in the Shipibo tradition.  We invite you to connect with Adam on his website at www.thestrategicveteran.com ______ The Shā Sparks Show sparks powerful conversations with business and military leaders about what it truly means to invest in people.  The award-winning host, Shā Sparks, is a leadership coach, speaker, and co-founder of The Makers Machine: Inner Circle, a community for purpose-driven entrepreneurs and creators who are ready to turn networking into life-changing connections.
