Summary

In today’s show, we interview special guest Tim Kennedy on finding the quitter. Tim needs little introduction. He is a Master Sergeant with the US Army Green Berets and a Special Forces sniper with multiple combat deployments throughout the middle east. He is a former professional mixed martial arts fighter and a two-time title challenger. He has been featured on numerous TV shows including HISTORY Channel’s show, “Hunting Hitler,” as well as the Discovery Channel’s series, “Hard to Kill.” Tim joins us this episode to talk about doing hard things, rejecting comfort, and mental fortitude. Appreciative of the plight of home service professionals, Tim speaks into the preparation that he used to handle difficult highs and lows in a day.
