This week on the pod, JT sits down with Tom Tice, founder and CEO of Warrior Strong, a nonprofit reshaping the way veterans and first responders heal through community and holistic wellness. What started with a $25 Craigslist yoga studio rental has evolved into a nationwide movement, offering over 70 monthly programs that range from meditation and breathwork to aquatic therapy and adaptive fitness.

Tom shares his journey from gym rat to nonprofit leader, the personal sacrifices he made to bring Warrior Strong to life, and how ego can be both your biggest obstacle and greatest teacher. They also dive into the power of healthy habits, the importance of purpose after service, and how Warrior Strong is helping veterans become certified instructors so they can continue the cycle of support.

This is a powerful story about grit, impact, and showing up for yourself.
