About this episode
Send us a text In this members-only convo, Peaches dives deep into two hot topics: beards in the military and the power of risk-taking. First up, he shares his personal beard journey (yes, even in uniform!) and breaks down why some dudes rock beards for operational, religious, or medical reasons. And guess what? He’s here to debunk the myth that beards can’t look professional. Spoiler alert: They totally can! Plus, he dishes on how leadership views the whole beard situation. But it doesn't stop there—Peaches shifts gears to talk about **why the military needs to embrace taking risks**. He tells not one but TWO epic stories about parachute jumps that pushed his limits. The key takeaway? Risks are part of the game, and learning from both successes and failures is the ultimate win. Get ready to hear some raw insights and unforgettable stories!
