Reid George - Leadership Beyond the Uniform

Former high school classmate Reid George sits down with me to talk about his journey from Allentown to serving as a Fire Support Officer with the 4th BCT, 82nd Airborne. A Ranger-qualified paratrooper, Jumpmaster, and artillery officer who held every key leadership role in his unit. Reid opens up about what 5.5 years in the Army taught him about pressure, purpose, and identity. Now a rising sales leader, Reid bridges the gap between military precision and civilian success. This episode hits on leadership, growth, and the evolution of a man still driven by service long after the uniform came off.
