#11 Switching Navy SEALs into EOD (BOMB Tech) contract, led to a lifetime of fulfillment!

from Old Ranger New Dad · host Seth Ryan

What happens when an 11-year-old watches 9/11 unfold…and feels powerless to help?For Jay Ly, that moment became fuel. Jay grew up in a rough neighborhood in Syracuse, NY—raised by a tough single mom who Made Sure FAITH stayed at the center even when life was chaotic. Years later, that same Faith + Grit carried him (Not into the Navy SEALs as he planned) into the Navy EOD community (Explosive Ordnance Disposal)—Where he deployed into combat with army Rangers and other elite operators in Special Forces destroying evil men. He did get to work with the SEALs & "Team 6" (aka DevGru) where he worked a totally different mission set keeping peace and build relationships with our 'allies' in Afghanistan. After leaving military life, he now focuses on his New Mission: Helping high performers build Legacy, Purpose, and Financial Freedom grounded in faith and character!Support the showPlease LIKE, Share and Subscribe for more content like this!! @OldRangerNewDad
