Today we get to know Ken Swan, Army veteran who served two tours in Afghanistan. Ken returned home to Chicago and found the transition to civilian life challenging, like many of us do. Luckily, Ken found Team RWB, an organization dedicated to helping veterans readjust and connect to their communities after they leave the military. Enjoy listening to Ken recount how a warm welcome from Team RWB Eagles brought him new purpose, identity as a veteran, and a love for endurance sports including powerlifting, running, triathlon, and GORUCK.
Connect with Ken on Instagram.

Transitions from War
After his service in the United States Marines Corps, Mike Ergo started the Transitions from War blog and podcast to talk about his struggles returning from combat in Iraq. From PTSD, and addiction to finding endurance sports, Mike has found a new life purpose and a passion to share this with others. Each week we dive into interviews with veterans and subject matter experts on how to truly transition home.
