D-Minus Diaries Podcast

Life changes one small step at a time. Sometimes we walk alone, sometimes with others, and sometimes we feel completely lost in a crowded room. But no matter where we stand, our stories matter — yours and mine. And somewhere between them is the truth we’re all trying to figure out. The D-Minus Diaries is a place for anyone learning, stumbling, rebuilding, or pushing forward when life refuses to give clear instructions. No topic is off limits. We talk about self-reliance, critical thinking, forgiveness, humor, failure, resilience, how politics shapes us, getting screwed over, and the life lessons that show up uninvited. Some stories are funny, some sting, and some remind us how thin the line is between chaos and clarity. I share experiences from an adopted kid in the Appalachian mountains with a D-minus average who went from bag boy to the Coast Guard, to Special Forces, to decades as a senior civil servant supporting America’s most elite units and its veterans. This podcast isn’t just about where I’ve been. It’s about where you’re going. New episodes weekly. Best enjoyed while driving. If you want it even shorter or punchier, I can cut it down again. dminusdiaries.substack.com
