Show Notes

Josh and I talk about how setting small realistic goals has been an important tool in helping get to his next highest point. We talk about his path of advocacy, not only for student veterans, but also for an under-recognized religious culture, Heathenism.

Last, we talk about using the hobbies you have to act as a transition buffer in order to have something to break the ice into your new life. Apart from some other common themes we hear on #YearOfTheVet such as networking, and working hard for what you want, Josh introduces a solid lesson on using your future endeavors, to not only choose the schools you apply to, but more importantly choose the specific professors you should study under--in order to help advance your career.

Josh is also the author of Old Don: A Heathens Tale, and the founder/co-founder of The Open Halls Project, which I highly suggest you look into.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
