Just raw stories about fatherhood, trauma, shame, healing, hustle, self improvement and the messy, beautiful process of rebuilding yourself from the inside out. Every week, Dustin and Terrence sit down to unpack the weight of the past, the realities of being men in a broken system, and what it takes to move forward when no one handed you the manual.

    Building a Business With Nothing: Trevor Ahing's No-Excuses Playbook | Therapy Was Full Ep 26

    I called my wife and said, I'm not going." Days before the move, Trevor Ahing backed out of relocating to Sacramento — then spent six months in an RV with no running water proving to his wife, and himself, that staying was the right call. Dustin Hayes and Terrence Davis get into real estate hustle, the discipline it took to make 300 dials a day, and how that grind became Marwak — a financial literacy movement built specifically for Marines. This episode covers entrepreneurship, sacrifice, marriage under pressure, and what it actually means to "come home" after service.

    250 YEARS OF FREEDOM

    "It's okay to feel differently about this holiday." Dustin Hayes and Terrence Davis open Season 2 of Therapy Was Full with a special 4th of July episode reflecting on what Independence Day really feels like for veterans. They cover America's 250-year history, the freedom to move, choose, and build a life most countries never allow, and react to a viral video from creator Ashani M. Fuku claiming white Americans should support Black creators to prove they aren't racist. The hosts push back hard, unpacking gaslighting, tokenism, and what real support actually looks like. A raw, honest conversation for every veteran and warrior grinding it out.

    Broken Femur, Broken System: A Vet's Fight to Matter Again | Therapy Was Full Ep24

    "The minute you step out the culture, you become a number." Chris Lorenz, Navy veteran and co-founder of Armed Forces Division (AFD) and Global Financial Impact (GFI), knows that feeling better than most — one bad step in Guam cost him his knee, his 11-year Navy career, and nearly his sense of purpose. This episode covers military medical retirement, the TAPS class that handed him a stack of papers and said "don't come back," veteran divorce, veteran financial literacy, and how he turned all of it into a veteran nonprofit built on one rule: never take from the people you're supposed to serve. Expect hard truths about military finance, veteran homelessness, TSP mistakes, veteran-owned business red flags, VA disability claims, and why "God knocks twice" became his motto. A must-watch for any active duty service member or veteran navigating military transition, veteran entrepreneurship, or veteran mental health. 00:00 Cold Open: "God Knocks Twice" 00:47 Welcome Back / Dustin's Return 01:24 Meet Chris Lorenz 01:59 11 Years Navy, Guam, and Loving the Culture 03:45 The Injury: Stepping Off the Platform 09:09 Seven Surgeries and Medical Retirement 10:33 Becoming "A Number" 13:44 Fighting the Med Board Decision 14:48 Dustin's Own Near-Suicide Story 15:55 The TAPS Class From Hell 18:10 Quitting the First Civilian Job in 8 Days 21:15 Veteran-Owned ≠ Veteran-Safe 23:20 How GFI/AFD Started 29:38 What Vets Actually Have No Education On: Money 31:04 The "Broke Five" Bit 38:14 The $46K TSP Story (26 Years of Service) 41:12 Retraining the Entrepreneurial Brain 45:09 What AFD Actually Does 52:33 Is There a Shortcut to Wealth? 1:00:21 "We Count Families Helped, Not Dollars" 1:02:31 Where to Find AFD / GFI 1:09:14 Final Message: Don't Harbor the Information
