Today I am sitting down with Kevin Flike, Green Beret, Harvard and MIT alum, public speaker, author, and Green Beret Foundation Board Member. I wanted to have Kevin on the show today because he’s an incredible example of someone who decided he was going to fully play out and live his life the way he wanted. I was privileged enough to have Kevin as a guest speaker for my mastermind, and he inspired every single person in the room. In this episode, we discuss the huge decision that he made while in rehab due to being severely shot in the line of duty. If you’re looking for inspiration, this episode is the one to hear!
