November 16, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 55.6 MBWhy Listen My conversation today is with two different Veterans senior in the tech industry. In addition to talking about their long and successful career including operations, program management, product management and more, we talk about the ideal team player (based on their experience hiring hundreds of people), the difference between a good boss and a bad boss, differences in leadership out of the military, and more. This interview brings over 20 years of hard earned experience that i...
BTU #375 - Two Journeys to Find Purpose
November 09, 2020 10:00 - 55 minutes - 50.7 MBIn so many of the 375 interviews I’ve done, Veterans talk about their journey to find a new purpose in life. That’s come up in countless conversations with friends of mine who didn’t serve in the military - I think it’s a pretty fundamental part of what makes us human. That’s why - as many of you know - earlier this year I teamed up with Craig Filek to co-lead a program called Purpose Mapping - to help people in the military as well as military veterans and military family members identify t...
BTU #376 - Two Journeys to Find Purpose

Episode #373- Navigating the Military to Civilian Career Transition Webinar
November 02, 2020 10:00 - 55 minutes - 50.7 MBNormally on the show, I interview a military Veteran about their civilian career – what they do, how they got there, and advice for other Veterans seeking to do the same. This episode is a little bit different. Last week I was fortunate to be part of a panel called “Off The Page: Navigating the Military to Civilian Career Transition Webinar”. This episode is that webinar – I had a blast, and loved the insights of both the moderator and the other two guests. Let me give you some context...
BTU #375 - Business Development in the Defense Industry (Alan Hislop)
October 26, 2020 09:00 - 55 minutes - 50.7 MBWhy Listen: I just finished up my conversation with Alan and a couple things stand out to me. First of all, it's it's pretty surprising to me that it's taken 374 other episodes, to get to the point of interviewing someone in the aerospace and defense industry. And, you know, it's it's surprising, first of all, because so many veterans go into this space. But more importantly, I feel like Alan, in our conversation, we really flipped the script on my understanding of this industry. And what ...
BTU #374 - A Case Study in Curiosity with Anthony Spadaro
October 19, 2020 09:00 - 51 minutes - 47.5 MBWhy Listen: In episode #367 I interviewed John Wayne Troxell, who talked about his transition journey after serving as Advisor to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and his nearly 40 years of military service. After our interview, he mentioned his friend Anthony, and I jumped at the opportunity to have a similar conversation. Anthony served in the Marine Corps for 35 years, serving most recently as a Command Senior Enlisted Leader, Sergeant Major. We talk about his career journey, h...
BTU #372 - CareerNerds with Tom Kent.mp3
October 05, 2020 09:00 - 50 minutes - 46.2 MBWhy Listen: In addition to having an extremely rich career in marketing at multiple brands that you will have heard of, my guest today, Tom Kent is distinguished for another reason. And that is that after nearly a decade of being Chief Marketing Officer and VP of Marketing etc. he started his own company called CareerNerds. And it was really born out of his own experience of having difficulty in job searches, explaining his backgrounds, interviewing, and landing the job of his dreams. And ...
BTU - looking for a side hustle
September 28, 2020 09:00 - 5 minutes - 4.86 MBWe are hard at work getting our next series of brand new episodes ready. But, in the meantime, I’ve got a question for you: are you looking for a side hustle? Are you looking to build up social media and marketing skills? If so, check out www.BeyondTheUniform.org/captivate I’m in the midst of launching my next company and looking for members of the military community (and their families) to help.

BTU #370- Everday Spy (Andrew Bustamante)
September 07, 2020 09:00 - 59 minutes - 54.6 MBWhy Listen: There’s so much I loved about my conversation with Andrew. For those of you wanting a mental image of Andrew - picture Dwayne Johnson with hair… that’s Andrew. After five years in the Air Force, Andrew served in the CIA for seven years. Since then, he has taken the lessons he learned in the CIA and used them - for himself and his clients - to get the most out of life. If you’re interested in the CIA or entrepreneurship, there’s something in this episode for you. But no matter ...
BTU #369 - How to Buy and Grow a Company (Charles Mullenger)
August 31, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 55.7 MBWhy Listen: I reached out to Charles about six months ago, and am so happy that I was finally able to get him on the show. In this interview, we talk a lot about building up specific skills in one’s career. In Charle’s case, he learned skills at business school and then in private equity which both were in line with his eventual career goal: entrepreneurship. And we talk about a form of entrepreneurship you’ve probably never heard about - search funds. So many Veterans want to run a company...
BTU #368 - Feltman's of Coney Island (Joe Quinn)
August 24, 2020 09:00 - 56 minutes - 51.7 MBWhy Listen: Today’s episode is a must-listen. Here’s my top three reasons. One - entrepreneurship. Joe and his brother started Feltman’s of Coney Island and is a self-proclaimed hotdog slinger. Seriously… do you need another reason? Ok, fine - reason #2: selflessness. The impetus for starting Feltman’s was the loss of Joe’s brother on September 11th. The way in which Joe and his brother honor their deceased brother is touching to say the least. Third - mindset. Joe is the Executive Directo...
BTU #367 - Advisor to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (John Troxell)
August 17, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 55.4 MBWhy Listen: I just wrapped up my conversation with John and i put this in a rare category of interviews where I just started taking notes for myself during the conversation. And john, as you'll hear, is such a wealth of wisdom about career success in in any arena. And so I found myself I've got a half a page to a page of notes for my own career advice that I got from him about achieving what you want to achieve in your in your professional life. JOHN, as you'll hear about worked his way up...
BTU #366 - Race & Gender in the Military (Natasha Sistrunk)
August 10, 2020 09:00 - 59 minutes - 54.1 MBWhy Listen: Normally I start with a nice quote, reasons to listen to the episode. I’m not doing that today. Today is a conversation I should have had 300 episodes ago - its a conversation I wish more people were having more candidly. Today I chat with Natasha Sistrunk Robinson, where we spend the bulk of our time discussing race and gender and the role it plays in the military. It is an open, honest, and very imperfect conversation, and something I sincerely hope you take the time to list...
BTU #365 - Impossible Foods (Dan Greene & Ryan Fisher)
August 03, 2020 09:00 - 58 minutes - 53.9 MBWhy Listen: When Carlson’s School of Management came to us with an offer for financial sponsorship, Steve and I were like kids in a candy store. We had the resources to do any interview we’d like… that’s like a dream come true. As I was thinking through who I wanted to reach out to, I started thinking about purpose - purpose is something that comes up time and time again in my interviews. So, I wanted to find a company that is purpose driven. A company that is doing something pretty differe...
BTU #364 - Veteran Tax Credits (Craig Washburn)
July 27, 2020 09:00 - 54 minutes - 50.1 MBWhy Listen: Craig is a serial entrepreneur who’s current company - Veteran Tax Credits - is relevant to all of our listeners. First of all, if you are a Veteran seeking a job, Craig talks about how the government provides tax credits for any employer who hires you. This is a financial benefit to employers that could play a deciding role in your next job offer, so it is worthy of your attention. Second, if you’re an employer, Craig talks about a tax incentive surprisingly few businesses know...
BTU #363 - Drones & Data @ SkyCatch (Christian Sanz )
July 20, 2020 09:00 - 59 minutes - 54.1 MBWhy Listen: I'm so honored to have had time with Christian today I want to give a little bit of backstory that I give at the start of the interview but I think it's worth recapping here. So, as many of you know we were fortunate to receive financial sponsorship from the University of Minnesota's Carlson School of Management. It allowed us to do a new series of interviews and so as Steve Bane and I were talking about who we wanted to interview, I realized that we haven't talked to anyone in...
BTU #362 - Hope Unseen Part 2 with Tiffany Smiley
July 13, 2020 09:00 - 33 minutes - 30.5 MBWhy Listen Welcome back to beyond the uniform, I'm Justin Nassiri and my goal is to help the military community thrive in their civilian career. Today's episode number 362. Hope unseen part two, with Tiffany smiley. Two weeks ago I interviewed Scottie smiley for Episode 359. As soon as the interview is over I emailed Scotty his wife Tiffany to set up an interview, because it was clear from Scotty story how big of a role she played in scotties recovery and success. I'm so glad I did. Tiffan...
BTU #361 - Purpose After Military Service (Craig Filek)
July 09, 2020 09:00 - 41 minutes - 38.3 MBWhy Listen: Purpose is one of the most cited things on this show. In 350 episodes, I cannot count the number of my guests who have talked about how they have struggled to find their next purpose once they leave the military. I experienced this... and I've experienced multiple times since I left the military over 10 years ago. In this episode, I have Craig Filek back on the show to talk about his Purpose Mapping work. Craig and I just finished up a 10 week course with 5 veterans, and we sha...
BTU #360 - CBS' "Tough as Nails" with Kelly "Murph" Murphy
July 06, 2020 09:00 - 50 minutes - 46.5 MBWhy Listen: Well, I just got done talking with Murph, and it's just such a great conversation and I wanted to just bookmark. A couple of things that we talked about in this interview because we cover quite a bit of ground. The first of all, I love Murphy's thinking around, expanding your thinking about what you're going to do in your career, and in his in his own story, and advice that he received along the way. He ended up doing things that he didn't initially plan when he got out of the m...
BTU #359 - Hope Unseen with Scotty Smiley
June 29, 2020 09:00 - 37 minutes - 34 MBAbout Scotty: Scotty is a graduate of the United States Military Academy (USMA). He began his career as an active duty officer. While leading his platoon overseas, Scotty came face-to-face with a suicide car bomber. That was the last thing that Scotty has seen. He woke up in the United States at Walter Reed Hospital blind and fighting for his life. Scotty not only had to learn how to live again, he also had to learn to lead. After fully recovering, Scotty became the military’s first active...
BTU #358 - Fit Ops with Matt Hesse
June 22, 2020 09:00 - 49 minutes - 45.2 MBWhy Listen: There is so much to love about today's interview. First of all on the professional side, Matt went from the Army National Guard and an unexpected departure into opening a series of nutrition supplement franchises that built up a skill set for him to then start his own performance supplement company, actually creating and selling many of these products, and then to his current role with company called Fit Ops which is doing absolutely unbelievable things in the military community...
BTU #357 - An intro to freelance consulting work
June 15, 2020 09:00 - 25 minutes - 23.2 MBIn this episode, I share thoughts about freelance consulting work and why both Veterans and those on Active Duty should consider this sort of work, either as a side hustle or a full time career.

BTU #356 - A 13 Year Journey to the Perfect Post-Service Career (Robin Brown)
June 08, 2020 09:00 - 47 minutes - 43.9 MBWhy Listen: Today’s episode originally aired one year ago. Usually, when I do rebroadcasts, I like to go a lot further back then that, but Robin’s episode has been on my mind a lot lately. We got a one-star review on Apple Podcasts recently, after a 132 5-star review streak. The review criticized Beyond the Uniform for focusing on the 10% of Veterans who are most successful in their career transition. I feel that there is some truth there - I imagine it can be frustrating, especially for th...
BTU #355 - Army to the NFL (Nate Boyer)
May 25, 2020 09:00 - 57 minutes - 52.8 MBToday’s episode originally aired all the way back in February of 2017. I was just getting my feet underneath me with Beyond the Uniform, and this was one of my first big episodes. I still think of this episode today. And, I have to disclose that I don’t follow football… I’m not a football fanatic… my appreciation of today’s guest has nothing to do with what he did in the NFL and EVERYTHING to do with two things that helped him get there: Failure - Nate has achieved the impossible - repeated...
BTU #354 - The Slight Edge
May 18, 2020 09:00 - 19 minutes - 17.7 MBToday’s episode originally aired all the way back in Oct ober of 2017. I recorded it a few weeks after episode #115 with Ray & Samantha Allen. They recommended a few books, and I read one that continues to impact my life called, The Slight Edge. I think about this book all the time. In fact, in the last four weeks, I’ve discussed it twice with my Executive Coach, as the principles I learned in this book continue to impact the way I approach work and life. I’m also currently co-hosting Beyo...
BTU #353 - Career Advice with Andy Chan
May 11, 2020 09:00 - 56 minutes - 51.6 MBAndy Chan works at Wake Forest as Vice President for Innovation and Career Development.

Previously, he was the assistant dean and director of the MBA Career Management Center at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business. Before joining Stanford, he served as president a...
BTU #352 - Vets in Hollywood (Tyler Grey)
May 04, 2020 09:00 - 52 minutes - 48.1 MBWhy Listen: My guest today has done the seemingly impossible - he went from medically discharged from the Army Rangers to consultant, director, and actor on CBS’ Seal Team, amongst other impressive accomplishments. But what sets Tyler apart isn’t his incredible accomplishments, it is his attitude. In this interview, Tyler talks about how we are all equally unprepared for our military transition - be it from medical injury or after 30 years of a career. He talks about giving up control, ...
BTU #351 - Veteran Careers in Education (Daris McInnis)
April 27, 2020 09:00 - 48 minutes - 44 MBWhy Listen: Often on interviews my guests talk about how - after they leave the military - they struggle to find a purpose, mission, or calling like they had in the military. One of the things i love about my guest today, Daris, is that his time since the military has been spent addressing a new purpose. I haven’t had anyone on the show before to talk about the education space. Daris has spent time as a teacher, leading a classroom of four year olds. He talks about how this is one of the b...
BTU #350 - The semiconductor industry & Micron Technology (Art Behnke)
April 06, 2020 09:00 - 1 hour - 64.6 MBWhy Listen: A lot of Veterans I speak with are interested in technology. Most of us in the military get a fair amount of experience with technology, and we hear about the high growth this industry has seen. It’s a pretty broad industry - to me, 10 years out of the military, hearing someone refer to Tech feels like someone referring to “the military” - it’s a great catch all phrase, but there is so much beyond that high level term - branch of service, MOS, warfare speciality, etc. Tod...
BTU #349 - Finding Your Identity and Value After the Military (Josh Atkinson)
March 30, 2020 09:00 - 54 minutes - 50.4 MBWhy Listen: The top two reasons to listen to this interview are: 1.Straight talk - Josh is very direct about the struggles he has faced in his career and transition. The wisdom he shares is incisive, and I think a lot of Veterans will appreciate both the sincerity and authenticity of his advice. 2.Consulting & project management - we talk about Josh’s experience with both consulting and project management, and why Veterans may love either of these career paths. Beyond the Unifor...
BTU #348 - The Gift of Struggle (Bobby Herrera)
March 23, 2020 09:00 - 56 minutes - 51.4 MBWhy Listen: The top two reasons to listen to today’s episode are: 1. Mindset - Bobby’s book, The Gift of Struggle, shares stories of adversity he has faced in his personal and professional life and how each of those struggles was a gift to him, his family, and his team. There is a great lesson for every listener in this. 2. Leadership - Bobby built his team to over 300 employees with nearly 9,000 contractors worldwide. He is humble and direct in sharing the mistakes he has made along the ...
BTU #347 - Marines to PMP Instructor and PM-ProLearn (Ian Fisher)
March 19, 2020 09:00 - 52 minutes - 48.5 MBWelcome back to Beyond the Uniform. I’m Justin Nassiri and our mission is to support the military community in their civilian career. Today is episode BTU #347 - Marines to PMP Instructor and PM-ProLearn (Ian Fisher) Why listen: Here are the top two reasons to listen to today’s episode: 1.Project, Program, and Portfolio Management - at BTU we often hear questions about these three career paths, and Ian goes into great detail about what these fields are, how they relate to one’s militar...
BTU #346 - WIA, Whiskey, and Entrepreneurship (Clayton Hinchman)
March 16, 2020 09:00 - 59 minutes - 54.5 MBWhy listen: Here are the top three reasons to listen to today’s episode: 1.Tenacity - Clayton describes his experience stepping on an IED in Iraq and the grueling road to recovery. His thoughts on perspective & perseverance are exceptional. 2.Sales - Clayton’s attitude towards business is inspiring. His competitive nature and desire to provide for his family are inspiring. 3.Entrepreneurship - Clayton has repeatedly started organizations that thrive. From USi, which was acquired by ...
BTU #345 - Flexible jobs that follow your life (Mika Cross)
March 09, 2020 09:00 - 51 minutes - 47.5 MBWhy Listen: In 344 other episodes we spend so much time talking about WHAT sort of work people do - the industry they choose, the functional role they take on, the size of company, even the part of the world in which they work - but we hardly ever devote time to HOW they work. Well, today’s interview is all about the HOW. Mike is an Army Veteran and acclaimed expert on how the workplace affects employee engagement. We talk about remote working and other flexibility options, and why listene...
BTU #344 - Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Admiral Mullen)
March 02, 2020 10:00 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MBWhy Listen: When I was in the Navy, I’m not sure how much I respected Admirals. I certainly feared them - I got that instilled in me at the Naval Academy. But I think I was caught up in this mindset of: it’s inevitable that I get promoted from O-1 to O-2, and from O-2 to O-3… so it can’t be that hard to make it to flag rank. In the ten years since I left the Navy, my respect for senior officers and flag rank officers has grown exponentially. I’ve seen how difficult it can be to reach the ...

BTU #343 - Army to U.S. Congressman (Rep. Brian Mast)
February 24, 2020 10:00 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBWhy Listen: Although Brian lost both of his legs while serving in Army, he didn’t let that deter him from finding a mission where he could continue to make a difference in the world. Brian ran for and is now a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Florida’s 18th District. In this interview we avoid politics and focus on what it’s like to work IN politics, as well as why Veterans may want to consider this as a career path. For listeners who enjoy this episode, be sure ...
BTU #342 - Army to Google Software Engineer (Joe Schafer)
February 17, 2020 10:00 - 36 minutes - 33.6 MBWhy Listen: Joe’s story is a great example of a military Veteran who makes a BIG career change after the military. He majored in Computer Science at West Point, but never had any intention of going into Software Engineering. However, he loved to program and so he kept doing it on the side while in the military. That hobby landed him a job at Google and a completely different life and career path. In this interview we talk about Software Engineering - what it’s like, how to succeed in this ...

BTU #341 - From Air Force to US Ambassador (Gary Grappo)
February 10, 2020 10:00 - 53 minutes - 49.4 MBWhy Listen: There is so much to appreciate about today’s interview. First of all: diplomacy. This is the first interview I’ve done around diplomacy, and I started off in the deep end of the pool, to say the least. Gary went from Air Force Officer to the US Ambassador to Oman. He had an incredible career in which he was involved in monumental work around the world. However, what I appreciate most about Gary is the humility and specificity he brings to this interview. It’s not just about why ...
BTU #340 - The Power of Meditation (Jon Macaskill)
February 03, 2020 10:00 - 47 minutes - 43.9 MBWhy Listen Jon went from 20 year Navy SEAL to a meditation instructor. In this interview we talk about Jon’s work with Veteran’s PATH, since I believe that every listener could benefit from this free program. We also talk about mindfulness, how it has helped both Jon and I, and what it is. We also talk about how Jon found his way to the non-profit space. One note, in my introduction I use the wrong title for Jon’s role at Veteran’s PATH - it is actually Deputy Director - my apologie...

BTU #339 - Purpose Mapping (Craig Filek)
January 30, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 61 MBWhy Listen: Many of the guests I’ve had on the show talk about their struggle to find a new purpose after they leave the military. I struggled with that as well, but - spoiler alert - that doesn’t end when you leave the military. I’m 39 right now, I’ve been out of the Navy for over 10 years, and I’ve been working on this same question for the last several months. That’s what actually led me to today’s guest, Craig. Craig and I met through John Wineland’s Emobdied Men’s Leadership Tr...

BTU #337 - Entrepreneurship and Self Knowledge (Khemit Bailey)
January 23, 2020 11:00 - 55 minutes - 50.8 MBWhy Listen: There are two reasons to listen to this interview. First of all, Khemit created a platform to help people discover their values and create a life of alignment with one’s values. I really enjoyed his approach to this, and found it both novel and effective. Second of all, Khemit’s story illustrates how he has built a career that is in alignment with his purpose in life. He left Apple to pursue a career better suited to his unique aspirations. This led him to living in Lisbon. Rega...
BTU #336 - Lessons from Tuck's Next Step program (Margaux Lohry)
January 20, 2020 10:00 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBWhy Listen: In previous episodes, several of our guests have talked about Tuck’s Next Step program - which is an accelerated way for military Veterans (and elite athletes) to go deep on learning business skills without having to spend two years getting an MBA. While we do talk about the Next Step program in this interview, we spend the bulk of our time talking about takeaways relevant to any military Veteran, such as: why it’s just as valuable to DISPROVE an potential career path as it is ...
BTU #335 - Emotional Intelligence 2.0 (Dr. Jean Greaves)
January 13, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 63.5 MBWhy Listen: We received a positive response to Episode #320 - Emotional Intelligence (Kerri Meyer), and wanted to go deeper on the topic of Emotional Intelligence. Today’s guest - Dr. Jean Greaves, wrote the best selling book, Emotional Intelligence 2.0 and created TalentSmart - an assessment taken by over 1.5M individuals, and which also provides products and services used by 75% of all Fortune 500 companies. To say that she is an expert on Emotional Intelligence would be a gross understat...
BTU #334 - Navy SEAL to College Football Coach (Jake Zweig)
January 06, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 58.6 MBWhy Listen There are so many reasons to listen to today’s interview. First of all: Sports.
