On this episode of the VET S.O.S. Network’s Veteran Entrepreneur Spotlight, hosts Shawn Welsh and Eric Brew connect with Curtez Riggs, founder of the Military Influencer Conference (MIC)—a movement redefining how veterans and military spouses collaborate, innovate, and lead in business.

Curtez reflects on his own transition story, from recruiting command to entrepreneurship, revealing how his experiences shaped his ability to build community and opportunity through digital media. He shares the early challenges of growing MIC, the power of mentorship and teamwork, and his mission to keep “reaching back” to lift others up.

With wisdom earned through service and innovation, Curtez offers inspiration for every veteran striving to create impact beyond the uniform. This conversation is a masterclass in turning passion into purpose—and purpose into a lasting legacy.

Listen now and discover how one veteran’s vision became a global stage for thousands of others.
