I had the honor of speaking with Marine Corps veteran Logan Spiewak, founder of the Boots to Health Foundation. As we talked, I could almost feel the presence of Chesty Puller himself, a reminder of the grit, resilience, and determination that Marines carry with them long after leaving the Corps.
Logan opened up about his journey from a troubled youth to earning the title of United States Marine. His service was cut short by a medical separation, which brought its own battles with mental health. Through mentorship, faith, and sheer perseverance, Logan found a new path forward—one that led him to build an organization dedicated to serving others.
The Boots to Health Foundation helps veterans strengthen their physical, cognitive, and spiritual well-being through personalized fitness and coaching programs. Logan and his team are building more than workouts—they’re building resilience, purpose, and a renewed sense of community for those who’ve worn the uniform.
We discussed the foundation’s growth, the impact it’s already having on veterans, and the various ways listeners can get involved in supporting the mission.
This episode serves as a powerful reminder of perseverance, brotherhood, and the importance of never giving up.

Thank you for joining me, Logan. Semper Fidelis.
