Episode Notes:

Rebecca sits down with Ad Godinez, whose 31-year Army career took him from U.S. European Command to Afghanistan and the Joint Staff during the COVID-19 pandemic. He speaks candidly about the moments that broke him, the nightmares that followed his service, and how he learned to give himself grace and ask for help. Along the way, he reflects on why the strongest leaders he has known are also the most vulnerable, and how sharing hard experiences can lift the people around us.
