Retired, Not Rewired | Why We Didn't Go Back to Work S1, E9
Manage episode 484967330 series 3667576
Welcome back to Four Titles, One Truth
Veterans. Husbands. Fathers. Black Men.
Hosted by retired Army Sergeant Major Tommie Jones and retired Colonel Lance Taylor, this is where real conversations happen — no filters, no scripts, just lived experience.
In this episode, we’re talking about what life really looks like after military retirement. No 9-to-5 grind. No corporate hustle. Just a decision to live life on our terms and why that was the right choice for us.
We discuss:
•Why we chose not to go back to work after retiring
•The pressure to “keep grinding” even when you don’t need to
•Redefining success and purpose without a job title
•How we’re staying productive, fulfilled, and focused post-retirement
•And the advice we’d give anyone struggling with the idea of what’s next after service
Retirement isn’t the end — it’s a new mission. And this time, the mission is peace, purpose, and freedom.
