What happens when a Navy SEAL turns mindfulness teacher?
In this powerful episode of The Unbreakable Mission, I sit down with my friend Jon Macaskill—retired Navy SEAL commander, speaker, father, and co-host of Men Talking Mindfulness. We dive into his journey from the battlefield to breathwork, and what he's learned about real strength through transitions, setbacks, and self-discovery.
Jon shares deeply personal stories—from childhood challenges and military pivots to divorce, fatherhood, and launching a mission-focused podcast that’s changing lives.
We talk:
- Resilience, grit, and the walls that test us.
- Why mindfulness isn't soft—and how it's forged in the fire.
- How being a father has revealed more about him than the SEAL teams ever could.
This episode is a masterclass in owning your story, eliminating excuses, and redefining what it means to lead.
Your mission: Reflect on one internal struggle you've been avoiding. Write it down. Then take one action today to face it head-on.
