About us
Every year, hundreds of thousands of veterans and first responders transition from service into civilian life. It’s a challenging time that often results in loss of identity and changes so significant it seems like they are changing planets. For our warriors to live the life of prosperity they deserve, they must rediscover their voice and tell their story. That is our Mission at The Heroes Journey.

Hey, you want to up your game with a badass workout shirt made by a Green Beret turned actor? No, not me...my Pal Lenny Bruce (Kenny Suggins in "Last Out") has an action apparel line called "Drop 50" that is just the best. I'm either wearing this or a Shangri-La Tee every day. Such cool gear made by a cool dude. Hope you'll check it out. https://dropfive0.com/ #drop50 #veteranshelpingveterans #lastout

While Monty was going through a rough bout with Sepsis in St. Joseph - South, Riverview, Florida...we were blessed to have wonderful health care pros at our shoulder every step of the way. This young lady cared for Monty like she was her own sister. One of the best nurses I've ever seen. Human Connection skills we should all aspire to emulate. Yep...she's a veteran. We talked transition and I gave her a copy of my transition book, "Mission America." I'm always in awe at the impact veterans are having in every aspect of civil society. Getting back in the game and leading at home. That's our new mission. #theheroesjourney #humanconnection #Mission America. #veteranshelpingveterans #veterans #nobodyiscoming

Helping this Vietnam War Paratrooper and his amazing wife level up their incredible stories helps me heal myself and find more relevance in my life. I'm so grateful to all the Vietnam War Military Community Members who've held space for me and mentored me over the years. Helping them put their stories into the world is just one small way of saying "THANK YOU!" theheroesjourney.org #storytelling #welcomehome #vietnamvets

It's funny. Stories put us in the kind of trance that makes the world seem a little brighter, a little more magical. They help us make sense of a big, scary world. Some of my favorite memories as a Dad...reading to my boys at night, and telling stories. No matter what time it was when I got home, we always found time to do it. I think those will always be the tracks I'm most fond of leaving in this world. There is something sacred in those moments before the little ones close their eyes and slip off to dreamland. I miss it. #militarykids #don'tblink #storytelling

TWAN TALES Part 4 - Catastrophic Success The play performance was amazing! So much energy. So much emotion. So much emotional connection. The audience was breathing as one when the lights went down and the curtains closed. The talkback went very well. But when I started to introduce the cast, Baby Twan wasn't there. I should have known something was up when the Stage Mangers brought him out to his appointed block on stage once the talkback with the audience had already commenced. He was quiet throughout the talkback. He said...nothing. Once the talkback was over, the cast hugged, debriefed, and began changing clothes to meet and greet audience members in the lobby. As I went from dressing room to dressing room to congratulate the cast and encourage them to join me in the lobby to meet audience members, I walked into Twan's dressing room. What I saw stopped me in my tracks. Dear God, I should have knocked. But, I didn't. some things you just can't unsee. "You're staying here Pal," I said with disgust. "Don't bother joining us in the lobby." When I came back to gather my things, Twan was gone. He'd returned back to the city, back to his life of fame...and God knows what else. I'll always have a special place in heart for the little "bundle of rock star partying," but I can't help but worry about him. Whoever has Baby Twan in their cast now, I'm asking you, nay...Imploring you...keep an eye on the little guy. He runs a little too hard, and that baby face will only get him so far in this business. #lastoutplay #militaryfamily #letgo

Did ya'll know my first book was a Children's Book for military kids? No joke. Monty and I saw no resources to help parent through the numerous deployments in 2004 so we created our own and thus began my writing journey as well as our foray into the non-profit space. What a cool, ever-changing, rewarding ride it's been. You never know where things will end up when you just see a gap and make a sincere effort to fill it. I thank my Mom and Dad for that life lesson, Monty for giving me the courage to try it, and all of you for believing in it. It means more than you'll ever know. theheroesjourney.org #juststart #storytelling #militarykids #humanconnection
