Summary

Check out the full podcasts on my website! http://www.andrewdeast.com/podcast Today I chat with former Army Green Beret and NFL player, Nate Boyer. I speak with Nate about how he found his calling in life and the many paths he took to get there. Shortly after 9/11, he found himself traveling and wanting to contribute to a higher cause. After joining the Green Berets, he had a desire to take up football and ended up teaching himself how to long snap and played as a walk on at the University of Texas. Nate's story is such a great example of how to be flexible and adapt in life. I'm so inspired by him and his work, especially all of the charity work he is in involved in. Tune in to hear what he's up to today, Nate Boyer. Thanks to Betterhelp for sponsoring this episode! Redirected listeners get 10% off your first month with discount code REDIRECTED.

it through that pivotal moment that defines what's next for us. And so after having experienced
