Show notes
Life after service isn’t always easy — especially when your identity has been shaped by the work you do.
In this episode of BE ALL IN, I sit down with Walter Settlemyre — retired paramedic, Army veteran, instructor, and host of The Distinguished Savage — for a thoughtful conversation about identity, transition, and what comes next after a career in service.
We talk about:
- Who you are when the uniform comes off
- Curiosity as a driver for growth and reinvention
- Resilience beyond grit and toughness
- Finding purpose in the next chapter of life
This episode is for anyone navigating change — whether you’re in EMS, the military, or simply at a crossroads asking what’s next.
🎙️ BE ALL IN is a podcast about discipline, curiosity, and showing up fully — even when the path changes.
