Enrique “Ric” Prado went from being a 10-year-old refugee placed in an orphanage to becoming one of the most elite warriors in U.S. intelligence history.

In this gripping episode, Ric shares how his early trauma forged the mindset that carried him through the jungles of Central America, the aftermath of 9/11, and deep inside CIA Black Ops.

We talk about:– The courage of his parents and how that shaped him– Lessons from Pararescue training and special operations– The price of leadership in high-stakes missions– Why purpose is more powerful than fear– How to build a mindset that can’t be broken

This isn’t just a story of survival—it’s a story of rising to the call of duty, no matter the odds.

If you want to become unshakable—this is the episode.
