What does a retired Navy Chief, a dedicated educator, a passionate writer, and a resilient cancer fighter have in common? They're all the facets of our extraordinary guest, Jason Stone. Jason's journey is nothing short of inspiring - a whirlwind of two decades in the Navy, a transition into teaching, and a recent battle against stage four prostate cancer. His story serves as a testament to human resilience, adaptability, and an unyielding spirit to learn and grow.
We kick off this episode with Jason's military tale that threads from his decision to join the Navy to his tenure as a nuclear machinist mate. He paints a vivid picture of life aboard a ballistic missile submarine, the unique rhythm of night shifts without sunlight, and the adrenaline of carrying 24 ICBMs onboard. The narrative doesn’t end there, though. Jason opens up about his shift from the Navy to a teaching role in Minnesota and his passion for writing. His love for learning and sharing knowledge shines through as he recounts his transition from the military to academia.
However, it's not all smooth sailing. Jason's recent fight against stage four prostate cancer takes center stage as he delivers a raw account of his diagnosis, treatment, and the emotional rollercoaster that follows. He doesn’t shy away from the fear, the waiting, and the toll it took on him. He takes us through his journey, shedding light on his coping strategies and his proactive approach towards mental health. Tune in for an enriching conversation that transcends military life, cancer battles, and personal growth, leaving you with pockets full of inspiration and newfound perspectives.
