My guest today is Kyle Buckett, a retired US Navy SEAL. He led the advanced training for both junior and seasoned Navy SEALs, ranked number one of nine highly competitive Platoon Chiefs, and has been instrumental in the business development of numerous Navy SEAL-founded businesses. He runs Culture Force, a consulting company with Chris Mefford, and is also regularly involved in numerous charities supporting veterans from the special forces communities.
