# 12 Justin Martinez: Finding purpose and healing after combat

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. You can find Justin’s tattoo shop below. The nonprofit he’s working for did not have a website at the time of recording/uploading: Coastal Ink Tattoo(Laguna Niguel, California): https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=d645707ffb8e0e1d&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS1018US1018&hl=en-US&sxsrf=AHTn8zqEnlyQcakvk5_9Eu45bNgwTpU4jw:1737830879541&kgmid=/g/11wp_6b_nt&q=Coastal+Ink+Tattoo&shndl=30&source=sh/x/loc/act/m1/3&kgs=66908720d52a1e4f Follow And Support The Show Subscribe, rate, and review the show wherever you listen.
