    Where Am I Going and Where Should I Go Instead

    This episode is a powerful reminder that nobody should have to face their battles alone. From sleepless nights and nightmares to alcohol, suicidal thoughts, and finding a way back through music and the support of others, Lee Stuckey and Aaron Justice share incredibly honest stories of struggle, resilience, and hope. Lee Stuckey talks about the importance of teamwork, a positive attitude, and creating a positive experience for those around you. He opens up about a time when he was struggling terribly with sleep because of nightmares and night sweats. That struggle eventually led him down a very dark road—from going without sleep to drinking heavily and having a gun in his hand, until his mother intervened. Lee's story is a powerful example of why transparency in leadership matters. When leaders are willing to be honest about their own struggles, it gives others permission to acknowledge theirs. His message is simple but incredibly important: nobody is alone—whether the struggle is physical, financial, or emotional. Music: Aaron Justice Aaron shares his own journey, including the disappointment of being medically retired when he had planned to be a lifelong military career. That transition brought him into a difficult relationship with alcohol, which became something he relied on constantly, particularly to help him sleep at night. Eventually, he found his way through it. Music has always been an important part of Aaron's life, and today he uses his songs to connect with people who may be sitting in their own valley. His hope is that when someone hears his music, they realize there are other people who understand, and they are not walking through it alone. 🎵 Song #1 – “Love Like Jesus Does”A beautiful song carrying an equally beautiful reminder: hold onto the good things in life and don't lose sight of what truly matters. 🎵 Song #2 – “Strength of a Survivor”Singing someone else's song can be nerve-wracking, and Aaron admits it was a major fear for him. But with his buddies beside him, they worked through that fear together—and created something truly amazing. Another reminder that sometimes we find our strength because we don't have to do it alone. 🎵 Song #3 – “Welcome to the Show”A powerful look at the masks we all wear. Sometimes we wear them to protect our privacy; other times, we wear them because we don't want to burden the people around us. But the longer we wear those masks, the easier it can become to lose sight of who we really are. This episode brings home a message we can all use: take off the mask, be transparent, lean on your team, and remember that whatever valley you're in, there are people willing to walk through it with you.

    New Inspiration, Creativity and Travel

    Episode 319, Boots to Beaches, is all about giving back, creating meaningful experiences, and helping veterans make memories that last a lifetime. Kevin Lombardo joins us to talk about his 501(c)(3), an organization dedicated to providing veterans with mostly cost-free travel experiences and restorative vacations. Through opportunities such as Honor Flights and other veteran-focused trips, the organization works to give veterans the chance to get away, experience something special, and enjoy the benefits of travel without the financial burden. The need is growing, with 126 applications currently in the queue. Each application goes through a verification process before being presented to the board for approval and determining what assistance can be provided. Kevin is also working toward giving away a family travel package in September and is actively looking for additional sponsors and donors to make these opportunities possible. The message is simple: volunteer, reach out, get involved, and donate. Every bit of support can help create an experience that a veteran and their family will never forget. This episode also features the music of Jenn Ford, who is entering a new and exciting chapter of her life. Living a healthier new life has brought new inspiration and creativity to her music, with more new music expected in the very near future. Jenn shared three songs that each tell a piece of her story: 🎵 “Woman in Black” – A powerful introduction to Jenn's music and storytelling. 🎵 “Turn You into a Song” – Written during a difficult time in Jenn's life as she was going through a divorce. While she was trying to appear happy on the outside, she was struggling on the inside. The song became a reflection of that experience and the emotions that came with it. 🎵 “I Gotta Keep Living” – A powerful reminder of perseverance and choosing to keep moving forward, no matter what life puts in front of you. From creating opportunities for veterans to finding healing and purpose through music, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best way forward is simply to keep going—and to have people beside you along the way. 🎵 Music Spotlight – Jenn Ford

    Experience that hurts the most is sometimes what keeps us going

    Episode 318 brings us a powerful conversation with Chris Whittemore, whose mission is simple but incredibly important: save as many lives as possible while helping military members transition from military service back into everyday life. Through his work with a VSO, Chris helps veterans navigate disability claims and other services, while also working to protect those who may be taken advantage of because of their service. His goal is to reach as many people as he can, share his experiences, and make sure veterans know that someone is there for them. Chris is also continuing to build his voice as an author, currently working through the editing process for the next books in his “Whispers” series. Behind that work is his wife, Christina Whittemore, who has been his caregiver, support system, and partner throughout his journey. Through The Wife Family Therapy, LLC, Christina now provides therapy sessions around the world, using her own experiences to support veterans and families who may find themselves in similar situations. Her message is that the veteran isn't the only person who needs support—the entire family does. Chris admits that marketing his books and getting the word out is probably not his favorite part of the job—he'd almost rather reenlist and deploy! But he remains determined to share his story and reach anyone who might need to hear it. This episode also features the music of Devon Stewart, an artist who has found music to be both a creative outlet and a form of therapy. Devon loves his home and space in Alaska but also enjoys connecting with people and fellow musicians. He participates in a music therapy program that helps veterans through songwriting and singing, using music as a way to process experiences and emotions. Inspired by artists like Tenacious D and “Weird Al” Yankovic, Devon brings humor and personality to his music while still tackling meaningful subjects. As a father, he is focused on being there for his 11-year-old daughter and his 21-year-old son, recognizing the things he may have missed along the way. Ultimately, Devon hopes that something he writes or shares can help even one person—and if it does, that makes it all worthwhile. The three songs highlighted in this episode each tell a different story: 🎵 “Sleeping Ain’t So Easy” – A look at how the reality of our lives can be very different when we're awake versus when we're trying to sleep, and how difficult it can be to control what happens in those quiet hours. 🎵 “War Song” – A raw look at Army life and deployment, focusing on the things that aren't always talked about—the difficult, uncomfortable, and not-so-glamorous realities of being away from home. 🎵 “No Name” – An emotional reflection on reaching the point of needing to call 988 and being in that difficult space. It isn't an easy part of the story to revisit, but it speaks to the importance of reaching out when help is needed. This episode is ultimately about service, family, healing, and the power of sharing your story. Chris and Devon both remind us that sometimes the experiences that hurt the most can become the very things that help someone else keep going.

    Our Own Experience Becomes the Fuel

    Episode 317 This episode is a great look at the man behind the music—a Marine, an artist, a storyteller, and a reminder that the experiences that shape us can become the fuel that drives us forward. This is Chris Lozano. From Colorado’s Western Slope to some of the biggest stages in country music, Chris Lozano brings grit, authenticity, and a whole lot of energy to everything he does. A 15-year United States Marine Corps Infantry Staff Sergeant, Chris carries the discipline, determination, and warrior mindset from his military service into his music and performances. His country-rock sound combines driving guitars, powerful storytelling, and the small-town values that shaped him. Chris has opened for country legends including Toby Keith, Clay Walker, and Shenandoah, while also earning recurring performances at Las Vegas venues such as Ole Red and Gilley’s. His high-energy show has become a staple at major Western sporting events, including the PBR World Finals and the National Finals Rodeo. Now signed with Nashville’s Label 22, Chris is recording new music at the historic RCA Studio C with four-time Grammy-nominated producer Eddie Gore. His newest singles continue to honor his roots, his military background, and the timeless spirit of American country rock. During the episode, Chris also highlighted three songs that capture the heart of his music and the stories he wants to share: 🎵 “Boots Sacred Grounds”🎵 “Backroad Nights” – Chris Lozano🎵 “Freedom Leads the Way” – Chris Lozano From military service to music, Chris’s story is one of discipline, resilience, freedom, and staying true to where you came from. This is an episode filled with great conversation, great music, and a powerful reminder that our experiences can become the fuel that drives us forward.

    RECODE Who I am

    Episode 316 – Sonya Achara This episode takes us deep into the work of rewiring the patterns that shape how we see ourselves and connect with others. Sonya Achara shares her own journey of being hard on herself and how learning to recognize subconscious patterns has helped her not only heal and grow, but also become better equipped to help others. Sonya explains her RECODE approach: Recognize the patterns, Explore what they are trying to protect, practice Compassion, Observe the pattern without allowing it to define you, Decide to make a new choice, and Embody that change by treating yourself with kindness. One of the biggest takeaways is learning that you are not your patterns—you can separate yourself from them and choose something different. Now living in San Diego, Sonya is putting the finishing touches on her book, focused on rewiring your thinking, finding yourself, and learning to regulate your nervous system. Then we turn up the music with Chris Turner, whose music has become a powerful outlet for healing and therapy. Through Label 22 and its nonprofit record label, Chris uses his music to help people process the noise and challenges of life. He also shares the excitement surrounding his upcoming album, Who I Am, and the importance of redemption, forgiveness, and letting go of the need to constantly prove yourself. Chris takes us behind three songs: 🎵 “Do It for the Country” – A deeply personal song inspired by his Marine experience and a fallen Marine he wanted to make sure would never be forgotten. 🎵 “Cowboy Like That” – A fun story inspired by the post-COVID cowboy trend—and the idea of being “all cowboy hat and no cattle.” 🎵 “Take You Out” – A hilarious and entertaining Waffle House story that turned into a song after Chris witnessed an unexpected scene involving a simple-looking guy and two beautiful women. From rewiring our minds to finding healing through music, this episode is full of honest stories, laughter, self-reflection, and reminders that sometimes the biggest change begins when we learn to be a little kinder to ourselves.

    What do you see when you look in the mirror

    This episode was like looking into a mirror—two very different stories shaped by many of the same struggles. Sean Young and Shannon Book opened up about addiction, disappointment, fatherhood, mistakes, and the difficult journey of owning your past while working toward a better future. Sean Young – Recover Out Loud Sean is a U.S. Army Veteran, Veterans Treatment Court (VTC) Mentor Coordinator, and practitioner of Peruvian Shamanism. After being medically retired following a brain injury, Sean quickly spiraled into addiction and struggled to find his way forward. Veterans Treatment Court became a turning point, connecting him with the support and accountability he needed. Today, Sean has turned those difficult experiences into an opportunity to help others in his community. His curiosity about Shamanism eventually led him to the right mentor, training, and a new path focused on helping people navigate some of life's most difficult and stressful moments. Through it all, Sean has rediscovered a love for life and the importance of being connected to others. His story is a powerful reminder that our lowest moments don't have to define us—and that sometimes the experiences that nearly break us can become the foundation for helping someone else. Music Guest – Shannon Book Shannon joined us for a deeply candid conversation about his music, his past, and the experiences that shaped the songs he writes. He shared the stories behind his music and opened up about the hope that someday his children—and others—will understand where he was then, where he is now, and where he hopes to go. “American Made” is Shannon's reflection on how we became who we are and who he is as he stands beneath the American flag. A strong believer in America and the principles it was built upon, Shannon shares his belief that we must stand strong and protect what makes this country special. “Little Things” was written during a difficult period in Shannon's life. It came from the realization that he had lost things, disappointed others, and disappointed himself. At its heart, the song is about his children and what they mean to him—whether they fully understand it or not. Thank you to Sean and Shannon for sharing your music, knowledge, honesty, and experiences with us. These are the conversations that remind us that recovery, accountability, connection, and hope can change lives. MN Monthly Muster – Meet and Greet Firearms & Safety Classes with Johnny Holliday Fall Market – October 3, 2026, at Post 6587 – Krause-Hartig VFW Grapes of Rucking Wrath – Our meetings with Alexis Bailly Vineyard & Winery have begun as we prepare for October 24!

    Standing alongside other military and veterans makes it even more worth it.

    This week on We Got Your 6@6, we sit down with Rich LaMonica of The Misfit Nation to talk about his mission to create a place where people can share their experiences, knowledge, and stories to help others. What started with conversations between military buddies has grown into a podcast bringing on guests who have lived through challenges and found ways forward. Rich shares what’s ahead for The Misfit Nation, including a future publishing brand, a magazine designed to help people get their stories written, and four books currently in the works. Staying busy is clearly something Rich does well! Our music spotlight features Sam Saxton, vocalist for the Air Force Band of the West in San Antonio, Texas. After joining the Air Force at age 39, Sam has accomplished two lifelong dreams—serving his country and performing for thousands of people. Sam shares three meaningful songs with us: 🎵 “My Daddy’s Hands” – A deeply personal song inspired by Sam’s mother telling him that he had his father’s hands. The song also carries a deeper meaning about being held in our Father’s hands through both the good and difficult moments. 🎵 “Through the Fire” – A reminder that everyone faces hard times, and sometimes we simply need to sit with those emotions and allow ourselves to feel them. 🎵 “It’s Always You” – Written for Sam’s wife, who has been his rock and constant support. With a little punk-rock influence to match her style, the song is a heartfelt thank-you for standing beside him through it all. We also have updates on the Grapes of Rucking Wrath event at Alexis Bailly Vineyard & Winery, our continued Wreaths Across America efforts, and WeP3 RADIO, featuring music created and performed by those who have served their country and communities. Thank you to Rich and Sam for sharing their stories, music, knowledge, and experiences with us! Next week: Sean Young and Shannon Book join us for another episode of We Got Your 6@6!

    Everyone NEEDS a mission

    Episode 313 – This week on We Got Your 6@6, we welcome author Elijah Lewis, whose journey into writing began with encouragement from those around him who recognized that his powerful words and speeches could reach even more people when put on paper. Elijah openly shares his own struggles with education and the encouragement he received from his father to look beyond traditional schooling and discover what he was meant to do. His book, Your Jewels Are in Your Journey, focuses on the power of positive influence and helping others discover their purpose—whether they have a clear plan for their future or are still trying to find their way. Elijah also gives us a look at his upcoming second book, which focuses on relationships and ways we can strengthen and improve those connections throughout our journey. We also learn about Salute to Duty, a mission started by Elijah's godfather to raise awareness about PTSD within our armed forces. On the 22nd of every month, the group checks in with one another while using lapel pins, service dogs, and community connection to show veterans the respect and support they deserve. We are also excited to feature Scotti Fraser, a longtime musician and combat veteran who uses music and writing to share the experiences, emotions, and memories that can follow a person long after their service ends. Scotti has found journaling to be an incredible way to put his thoughts into words and connect with others who may be facing similar struggles. He's also been busy creating new music and is working toward getting his music pressed on vinyl! Song #1 – “Never Surrender”A powerful message reminding people that they matter and encouraging anyone struggling with thoughts of suicide to never give in to the negative voices—whether they come from others or from within. Song #2 – “One Song at a Time”A reminder that music can carry us through the most difficult moments. We all have songs connected to memories, people, and experiences—and sometimes it's just one song at a time that helps carry us home. Song #3 – “American Made”An autobiographical look at Scotti Fraser's life and the rollercoaster that comes with living in what he considers the greatest place on Earth. Through the daily grind and difficult times, the song celebrates America and what it means to be American made. Grapes of Rucking Wrath – Veteran & First Responder Support EventPlanning is underway with Alexis Bailly Vineyard & Winery, and we're looking toward October 24 for this incredible day of rucking, music, games, camaraderie, and community!
