This was a JAM-PACKED episode with a ton you are going to love.
Jon is a former infantryman who left the Army and went to go get his MBA at the Yale School of Management.
But sometime while he was there, he realized that he didn’t think going down the “normal” career path was going to provide him a fulfilling life. And then he was reminded of the struggles many veterans face after the military when a member of the platoon he led in Afghanistan killed himself.
Feeling the need to do something more and help other veterans avoid the feelings of lost purpose that plague the community, he started Outlaws, Inc. Through this business, he is focused on placing veterans in trade or skills jobs that they will find meaningful.
