In this episode you will walk away with the insights needed to rebound after multiple pivots after your military transition. Josh explains that sometimes you never find "IT," sometimes you just need to grow through different career opportunities to understand what passion and success means to you. Now, after four different career transitions after the military he is finally doing what he loves in helping connect the dots with veteran entrepreneurs, transitioning veterans looking to get into tech and IT, and bridging the gap between veterans and employers in San Diego, California and beyond!
