"People First, Mission Second" — Army SFC Rich Lamonica on Leading and Starting Over

Rich Lamonica spent 22 years in the U.S. Army as a Chemical Operations Specialist and Sergeant First Class. He led soldiers through deployments, built teams, and mastered the mission. Then he retired — and spent the next year not recognizing himself.
In this episode, Rich breaks down the leadership philosophy that defined his service, the "Stacking Victories" framework he built to regain momentum after transition, and why he launched The MisFitNation Podcast to give veterans a place to belong after the uniform comes off.
If you've ever felt lost after leaving the military — or you're still serving and want to lead better — this one's worth your time.
