Season 2 EP 8: Training is a polishing action

Big John is the type of man I truly respect based on what I have seen of him. We live in a country where masculinity has been demonized and persecuted for a few decades now and so when I see a man who is unapologetic-ally healthily being masculine it is inspirational and rejuvenating to me. Big John uses this natural energy to inspire, teach and help others improve on a regular basis which is what healthy men do along with providing and protecting physically, mentally, emotionally and even spiritually for those who count on them. This episode is NOT about masculinity and femininity, in fact, we talk about female agents towards the end of the episode. Nonetheless, Big John is the type of man who is both physically and intellectually strong, he's got a good sense of humor, lots of experience and a very deep/holistic perspective to give. Beyond all of these attributes of contribution, he has chosen to give these attributes to people who are willing to listen and that is truly honorable. He was definitely one of my absolute favorite instructors at the Executive Protection Institute as well. In this episode, we talk about all of the things we wish we knew at the beginning of our careers and contrast them with things he has gleaned from over 30 years in the industry and his perspective and thoughtfulness always impresses me. This is the first of a two-part series I'm doing with John Musser because he has so much to give. ENJOY!
