# 12 Justin Martinez: Finding purpose and healing after combat

from Going in Blind with Zach Tidwell

Justin Martinez is a retired Army Chief Warrant Officer 2, tattoo artist, entrepreneur, and a man who has committed his life to serving others. While there’s plenty of laughing in this episode, Zach and Justin spent a lot of time discussing the challenges so many veterans face when transitioning to civilian life before following Justin’s path to discovering purpose outside the armed forces.
