I’ve seen a lot of communities promise growth. Very few are built with this level of intention. What makes Josh different is not the information. It’s how he leads. He doesn’t teach from theory or recycled frameworks. He teaches from lived experience. From mistakes made, lessons learned, and time spent actually doing the work. He has a rare ability to connect people in a way that feels human, not transactional. He sees people clearly, listens deeply, and brings the right minds together at the right time. Not for clout. Not for optics. For outcomes. This community feels like the thing many of us wish existed a decade ago. A place to sharpen skills, think more honestly, and build relationships that actually matter. It’s about intention. If you want noise, shortcuts, or hype, this won’t be your place. If you want to grow as a person while building something real, led by someone who genuinely cares about the outcome, you’re in the right room. Adam Peters The Strategic Veteran

Hey everyone, I’m Adam. I’m a veteran, educator, and systems thinker working at the intersection of human transition, healing, and intelligent infrastructure. Over the last few years I’ve built The Strategic Veteran into a long-form media and community platform with 140+ deep conversations about identity loss, reinvention, and what actually helps people rebuild after major life rupture. That work is now transitioning into a nonprofit, because the problems veterans face are systemic, and the goal is capacity and sovereignty, not dependency. Alongside that, I operate as a fractional Chief AI Officer. My focus is education first. I teach founders and operators how to think about AI and automation so they can design, adapt, and own their systems long after I’m gone. The goal is not to catch fish for people, but to make sure they can feed themselves in a rapidly changing environment. I’m also a partner at Amakaya, a plant medicine retreat in the Peruvian Amazon serving veterans and first responders through Shipibo traditions. Being that close to the medicine has made one thing painfully clear: access to the ceremony is not the problem. Access to preparation, integration, and long-term support is. That realization is what’s currently pulling my attention toward questions of ethical scale. Where can technology lower barriers without flattening the human work? Where can structure protect people instead of commodifying them? Psychedelic preparation and integration is one of those fault lines, and it’s something I’m actively thinking through. I’m here because this community is full of people who can hold nuance, challenge assumptions, and build with intention. I’m not here to posture or pitch. I’m here to contribute, pressure test ideas, and learn from perspectives I don’t yet have. Looking forward to connecting.

If you could wave a magic wand right now and solve ONE problem in your life or business, what would it be? Comment your issue and the action steps you've taken so far... maybe I or someone else in the comments can offer a unique perspective you haven't considered yet. 🤷‍♂️ Or maybe we can just light a candle for you and hope for the best 😂❤️ 👉 Either way... go to my PINNED TOP POST and if you haven't voted yet, GO VOTE cause I'm choosing an Uber Eats gift card winner tonight!
