For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Mike Simpson, a combat veteran, emergency medicine physician, and now author of the fiction novel The Last Dungeon Crawler.

Dr. Simpson’s journey began with his early days in the elite ranks of the Army Rangers, followed by a storied career in Special Forces. After transitioning out of the military, he became a board-certified emergency medicine doctor, applying his combat medical experience to the civilian world. Now, as an author, he continues to challenge himself creatively through his writing. With his decades of experience in high-stakes environments, both on the battlefield and in the ER. Dr. Simpson brings a unique perspective on human performance, personal transformation, and storytelling.

In this episode, Dr. Simpson shares powerful lessons from his time in the military and how they’ve shaped his mindset and mission today. We talk about the importance of deliberate change, embracing discomfort to grow, and what it means to live with purpose. He also dives into his debut novel The Last Dungeon Crawler, as well as his self-development book for men over 40, titled Honed.
