On this episode of The First Responder Playbook, I sat down with Joshua Daniel—20-year Army veteran, retired special operator, and founder of Hero Games charity and Counterculture Solutions. We dove into his incredible journey from small-town Virginia to leading elite teams in combat, the power of leadership without titles, and turning hardship into empowering others. Josh’s story is packed with hard-won lessons on resilience, building community after service, and leading with integrity. If you’re looking for inspiration, actionable leadership tips, and a reminder of the impact we can have serving others, this episode is a must-listen.
