    From Navy SEAL to Breaking Point to Building Lives | Johnny Wilson
    May 1 2026
    Johnny Wilson’s life doesn’t follow a straight line—it crashes, burns, and rebuilds. From getting kicked out of the Naval Academy to fighting his way into the Navy SEALs…From combat deployments in Iraq to the trading floor at Goldman Sachs…From suicidal thoughts and a fractured life to finding healing in the darkest places… This is a story about what happens after the mission ends. Johnny opens up about war, trauma, identity loss, addiction, and the moment everything broke. And more importantly—how he found a way back. Now, through INVI MindHealth, he’s helping others do the same—using data, community, and new approaches to mental health to save lives. This one is raw, honest, and necessary.

  • War Took His Legs. Not His Life. | Jason Smith

    War Took His Legs. Not His Life. | Jason Smith
    Apr 29 2026
    Jason Smith is a retired U.S. Army infantry sergeant who lost both legs after stepping on an IED in Afghanistan in 2012. What followed wasn’t just survival—it was a complete rebuild. From months of rehab in Texas to refusing prosthetics, to eventually relearning how to walk, Jason had to let go of who he was to become someone new. Along the way, he faced PTSD, setbacks, and moments that nearly broke him—but kept choosing forward. Today, he’s a father of two, lives on a farm, and serves veterans through Catch A Lift Fund—helping others rebuild through fitness, community, and purpose. He’s also a USPA National Bench Press Champion, competing and winning against able-bodied athletes. This is a story about identity, resilience, and what happens after everything is taken from you.

  • From Olympic Pressure to Peace and Purpose | Katie Hoff

    From Olympic Pressure to Peace and Purpose | Katie Hoff
    Apr 24 2026
    Katie Hoff was one of the best swimmers in the world before most kids could drive. She made the Olympic team at 15, won multiple medals, and carried the pressure of being called the next great American swimmer. But behind the results was a different story. The weight of expectations. The identity tied to performance. And the realization that even success at the highest level didn’t bring what she thought it would. After missing teams, battling depression, and a pulmonary embolism that ended her career, Katie was forced to rebuild from the ground up. What followed wasn’t another comeback in the pool — it was something deeper. In this conversation, Katie opens up about IVF, Olympic pressure, identity, and how the Hoffman Process helped her find real peace. Now she’s building a new chapter through her podcast, her work, and starting a family. This is about what happens after the dream — and how to build something better.
