The next act of your story might be the one that defines you most.

In this episode of Badass in Action, host Melanie Browning sits down with Chris Roan — a Navy combat veteran, corporate executive, and now actor — to explore the power of vulnerability and reinvention.

Chris shares his journey from growing up on a Wyoming ranch to serving in the Navy, grinding through decades of corporate life, and finally answering a long-ignored calling to acting at 46 years old. He opens up about the date that changed everything (May 9th), how therapy and mindset tools helped him process PTSD and anxiety, and why listening to the universe’s nudges can transform your path.
