I'm very pleased to have Jay Johnson on Titans of Transition to speak to his career journey and his successful transition from military service to owning and operating J2 Servant Leadership, LLC. He is a motivational speaker, trainer, facilitator, consultant, and coach, who is passionate about helping businesses and individuals achieve extraordinary results in their professional and personal lives.

Many things can hold us back from a career transition including fear and insecurity. A repeating theme on this podcast and my coaching is escaping the comfort zone.  When things are going OK or even not great but they are predictable we often get stuck.    Jay Johnson has some great stories and illustrations about how to escape the comfort zone.  At one point in our conversation he talked about " getting outside the wire.  No doubt he heard this term often in the military.  He shares his personal career transition stories and many more lessons in this episode.

Recently I attended PodFest, an event for podcasters to exchange ideas, explore technology and network with other in this space. I had the pleasure to meet with several podcasters who were retired from military service. I have great respect for them and their service! It was very interesting to hear their stories which included challenges in finding a new career or focus.
