Summary

EPISODE 200!! Cody Alfred takes us deep into the life of a Marine Corps warrior who rose through the ranks to become one of the fastest-promoted Master Sergeants in U.S. military history. A true American hero, Cody opens up about the dark challenges he faced after retiring from the Marine Corps—struggles with mental health, self-doubt, and redefining purpose beyond the battlefield.

Cody shares how mentorship, leadership, and personal development became his mission post-service. He reveals how authentic relationships, emotional intelligence, and self-discovery helped him transition from military life into a powerful voice for change. His youth development program empowers young men to lead with integrity, confidence, and emotional strength.
