from The Second Act with Michael and John · host Michael Newborn, John Ballenger
In this episode, Michael and John are joined by Isaac Lee, a former Marine Corps Commanding Officer and MAWTS-1 Instructor (think Top Gun for helicopter pilots), who shares his journey from growing up in Texas to joining the military and eventually transitioning into the private sector. He discusses the challenges of balancing military life with personal life, the unique experiences and camaraderie in the military, and the decision to leave the Marine Corps. In one’s transition from the military to the private sector, Isaac emphasizes the importance of “finding a situation, not a job,” where he has applied his operational and leadership skills to help organizations level up their business for scale and efficiency. Isaac also reflects on his two decades of combat experience in writing his memoir titled Hangar 4 (release date: April 9th, 2024). He discusses the importance of mental health advocacy and the impact of his military service on his relationships.
