In Episode 20 of 365 Proof by Defining Wellness, Daniel and Courtney sit down with Lee and Tiffany Stringer of 5th Squad, a veteran led nonprofit creating connection, support, and community for veterans, service members, and their families.
Lee shares his journey from enlisting in the Army to serving overseas, navigating the transition home, and finding renewed purpose through serving others in a whole new way. Together, Lee and Tiffany discuss the power of camaraderie, the unique needs of military families, 5th Squad’s events and assistance programs, and why taking care of yourself and your relationships matters when your life is built around helping others.
This is an honest conversation about service, resilience, family, and finding your people after the uniform comes off.

We are honored to support 5th squad's mission and join forces in helping all veterans and service members who need us.
