🎙️ Season 5, Episode 5 – “Healing, Leadership, and Impact: Why Strategic Support Matters”
In this episode, host Mike Kenny sits down with Warriors’ Ascent Board Chair Steve Tanner—a national security expert and passionate advocate for veteran mental health—to unpack why strategic partnerships, community engagement, and holistic healing are vital for both mission success and long-term societal well-being.
They explore the life-saving impact of Warriors’ Ascent programming through personal stories, research-backed insight, and hard-won experience from the worlds of leadership, national defense, and nonprofit development. From breaking the stigma around mental health to emphasizing mental performance as workforce investment, this episode calls on leaders—especially in military, law enforcement, and first responder circles—to lead with integrity and action.
Discover how one veteran’s healing journey can impact hundreds—and why every individual transformation creates a ripple effect across families, organizations, and communities.
