  From Marine to Mission: A Conversation with Keith Barton: Leadership. Service. Entrepreneurship. Storytelling. Public Service.

  Jul 30, 202643 min

  What happens when one mission ends and another begins? This week, I sit down with fellow Marine Corps veteran Keith Barton for a conversation that goes far beyond politics. From serving as a Recon Marine, Marine officer, and UH-1N Huey pilot to becoming an entrepreneur, published author, and congressional candidate, Keith has continued to reinvent himself while staying committed to one thing: service. We discuss leadership, military transition, entrepreneurship, writing novels, family, purpose, and why veterans are uniquely equipped to continue making a difference long after the uniform comes off. If you’ve ever wondered what your next mission could be, this episode is for you. Join us for an honest conversation about leadership, resilience, reinvention, and the courage to keep answering the call.

  Mission Mindset: Why Veterans Make Great Entrepreneurs

  Jul 9, 202639 min

  For years, the military trained us to lead, adapt, solve problems, and accomplish the mission. What many veterans don't realize is that those same skills are the foundation of successful entrepreneurship. In today's episode of The Field Op, I talk about why veterans are uniquely equipped to build businesses, lead teams, and create opportunities after the uniform comes off. We discuss the similarities between military operations and business, why many veterans struggle in traditional corporate environments, and how entrepreneurship can provide a renewed sense of purpose and mission. The military prepared you for more than combat. It prepared you to lead. Now it's up to you to decide where you'll lead next. Listen now.

  One Nation, Many Stories: Celebrating 250 Years of the American Experiment

  Jul 2, 202630 min

  For 250 years, America has been a beacon of hope, opportunity, and freedom for people from every corner of the world. In today's episode of The Field Op, I reflect on what this country has meant to me as an immigrant who became a United States Marine, why the military remains one of the greatest examples of unity in America, and how this year's World Cup has given us a unique perspective—allowing us to see our country through the eyes of visitors experiencing it for the first time. Sometimes it takes someone from another country to remind us of the things we've stopped appreciating: our hospitality, our freedom, our diversity, and the opportunities that still make America unlike any other nation on earth. This isn't about politics. It's about gratitude, citizenship, service, and remembering what unites us as Americans. Happy 250th Birthday to the greatest experiment in self-government the world has ever known.

  The Man in the Mirror: Becoming the Seasoned Warrior

  Jun 18, 202633 min

  There comes a point in life when you look in the mirror and realize you're no longer the young Marine, soldier, sailor, or airman you once were. The question is: what do you do with that realization? In today's episode of The Field Op, I talk about aging, fitness, health, identity, and the transition from being the young warrior to becoming the seasoned warrior. This isn't about giving up. It's not about lowering standards. It's about adapting. We discuss the shift from chasing performance to prioritizing longevity, maintaining our health as we get older, dealing with injuries, staying mentally sharp, and continuing to carry the warrior ethos long after the uniform comes off. I may not be as lean. I may not be as mean. But I'm still a Marine. And the mission today is making sure I'm healthy enough to enjoy the life I fought so hard to build. Listen now.
