Manage episode 485557930 series 3004775
In Part 2 of this gripping conversation, host Simone Johnson continues her discussion with Nick Berg—author of Shadows of Tehran and U.S. Special Operations veteran—as he reflects on life in the military, what it meant to serve the very country he once viewed from afar, and how those experiences shaped his evolving identity.
Nick shares powerful insights into his missions across conflict zones in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and Bosnia, the psychological toll of war, and how his training pushed him beyond the limits of fear and survival.
This episode explores the intersection of patriotism, trauma, and transformation as Nick transitions from a soldier to a storyteller—and begins writing the narrative that would become Shadows of Tehran.
