If you train your body, right? If you believe in fitness, then you need to understand that

body and mind is connected. You have to train the mind. And the only way that you reach a level

of fulfillment and happiness is you train the mind.

Okay, welcome back or welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Michael

Jervet, by trade and training a high performance psychologist. And this week, we have a very

special conversation for a few reasons. First of all, this is our 400th official episode

of Finding Mastery. That number 400 episodes represents a podcast published every single week

for over seven years. And I just want to express my sincerest gratitude to you for tuning in

and helping build our community. This podcast wouldn't be possible without you. And I'm so stoked

that our team at Finding Mastery gets to continue sharing our passion with you.

It's been quite the adventure so far in it. It still feels like we're just getting started.

And to celebrate our 400th episode, I'm stoked to welcome back a legend to the podcast

for this week's conversation to Lam. To is the real deal. He's a literal video game character.

And we're talking about Call of Duty, not the Sims. His two plus decades in the military,

22 years in special operations make him an obvious choice, but it's his extraordinary warrior spirit.

His inherent resolve in the face of adversity to live completely aligned with his values.

Early tragedy and upbringing of horror and hopelessness in years of combat and subsequent PTSD

never hardened to. Instead, the hardships of his past only cemented his desire to serve humanity.

He's a retired green beret, a tactical weapons expert, a highly skilled martial artist,

and the founder of his company Ronin Tactics. With loyalty, courage, and honor at the core of who he is,

to show us what fuels the best kind of fighters. In this conversation, you'll hear from a true warrior,

but make no mistake about it. This is a conversation about love.
