In this episode of Boots to Boots, Deonna Purrazzo and Steve Maclin sit down with Martin Foster, a newly retired Air Force veteran after 23 years of service and the host of the Passing the Torch podcast.
Martin is actively walking through the transition we so often talk about—stepping away from the uniform, redefining identity, and intentionally searching for the next mission while honoring the one that came before. Together, they discuss leadership, accountability, and what it really means to pass the torch while still finding your footing in a new chapter.
This conversation is for anyone navigating change in real time, carrying their values forward, and building purpose beyond service.
🎧 Listen now, and follow, subscribe, and share with someone who’s in the middle of their own transition.
