The Resilient Show
Green Beret Terry Wilson spent nearly two years “getting engaged every day” in Afghanistan’s Helmand Province, but lives to share the battle-tested resilience secrets that carried him through daily firefights, a shoot-down rescue, three felony charges, and the heartbreaking loss of his son. In this raw, two-hour sit-down with Force Recon Marine turned host Chad Robichaux, Terry opens up about Special Forces selection, surviving a CH-47 crash, leading an ODA under constant contact in Kajaki Sofla, wrestling with PTSD and survivor’s guilt, and rebuilding life through faith, fitness, and intentional fatherhood. If you’re searching for real-world lessons on purpose, mental toughness, or veteran transition, this conversation delivers.
