Jeff Takeda is bringing some things back that have always been a part of many different warrior cultures. He is one of our master class instructors at the League of Executive Protection Specialists and his module is pretty amazing. Check more on that here: https://www.epspecialist.com/ I believe it’s a discipline that we have unfortunately overlooked and forgotten these days but it can bring us all considerable strength. For the warrior, it’s even more important however to stay grounded mentally emotionally, and spiritually. I believe it is unfortunate that mindfulness and meditation have gotten such a bad rep in some circles or that it is believed that these things are strictly a religious phenomenon. The reality however is simply that these disciplines are a way of strengthening yourself internally and psychologically. All major religions talk about this discipline because it is something the human being needs from time to time. The art of quieting the mind is so good for us and even better for those of us who must perform at high levels under extreme and stressful, circumstances. This will not just help you in the heat of battle but this will also help you with the fight some of us have to find after the battle. There really is something for everyone in this episode and if you want a period of instruction from Jeff on this topic then do join us for the master class membership.

Former Special Operations Soldier, Master Sgt. Norman Hooten notably known for his portrayal by Eric Bana in the film Black Hawk Down, he’s honestly the type of man I hope to be one day. When it comes to warfare in combat he has been there and done that but most importantly it has equipped him with a mental and emotional stance that should be studied very deeply. There are the men you meet that deserve respect because of what they’ve done but it is always truly priceless to meet a man who you can also respect for who he is as well as what he’s done. Norman Hooten is the type of man who, I could sit and listen to and learn from for as long as he would have me. He has led men in battle on many occasions both in distant lands, as well as here at home as we struggle in the first civilian division as veterans. By the way, his whiskey brand is pretty amazing as well and exists for all of the right reasons. Hooten Young was founded by Norm Hooten and Tim Young. Created as a brotherhood bonded by the love of freedom, family and honor, Hooten Young is a tribute to the brave men and women of the armed forces who have gone above and beyond the call of duty. Hooten is a true American hero. While retired from active military duty, he continues to work with veterans today as a full-time health care provider. In addition to his medical work, Hooten has partnered with his closest friends to create an American Whiskey to honor the brave men and women of the armed forces. It was truly an honor to have him on the podcast, and I know y'all will love this episode as much as I did! ENJOY. Protector by nature and by trade Byron Rodgers For more, visit hootenyoung.com/

Mikey Hartman, Former Commander of the IDF Sharpshooting and Marksmanship School, is the CEO of CAA USA & International. CAA (www.caagearup.com/) is the exclusive distributor of world-class, operator-tested firearms accessories. Their products are specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of tactical solutions required by the world’s armed forces, law enforcement units and weapons professionals. LTC. (Ret.) Mikey Hartman, has vast and unique 20-year experience of training over 500,000 soldiers and building the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Shooting Doctrine to CAA. Working with a staff of former IDF elite reserved forces, counter terrorism and commando units and members from the shooting competition sports, Hartman developed firearms accessories for the law enforcement, military and civilian markets giving them a tactical and survival advantage. As the president of the most successful Micro Conversion Kit company in the world Mikey Hartman, has truly done an amazing job. I had always seen the MCK in different hands out in the field domestically and internationally with private security operators but I never gave it much thought. Finally, when I picked one up, it all made sense instantly. When it comes to turning your pistol into the ideal weapon for close-quarters combat, this platform is the best in the business. It’s not so small that it complicates what you need to do with your gun but actually, it’s designed perfectly to work with your hands and ergonomics. Running a shorter barreled pistol caliber inside of a building alleviates much of the concern for over-penetration we deal with when fighting with long guns. You can run the same ammo for your site on that you run for this platform and we all have a pistol collecting dust in our safe that needs an upgrade. Whether you’re on a private security team or just looking for something truly amazing to protect your family and your home with, I highly recommend you take a look at this affordable your effective upgrade to your arsenal.

I'm honored to interview Daniel Coman in this episode of the Executive Protection Lifestyle podcast. He's been working with me on a few projects inside the industry and I've known him for quite some time now. Daniel entered the industry when he turned 60, and if you think that it's too late to join an industry like ours, you should listen to this entire episode. He's also one of the patrons of the Executive Protection Training Day Succes Package and during the course of the interview, he talks about how this course helped him to stay in the EP game. Daniel also gives a few important tips for the older guys and girls looking to get into the executive protection industry. Most importantly, Daniel talks about what motivates him to be in this industry, he delves into his past a little bit and explains why he loves to be an agent. He's been with us in all of the Protector Symposiums because he truly was a protector at heart. And today he's out there doing what he always wanted to do by the grace of God. Through his hard work, dedication and execution of a very deliberate strategy, he has put the goal of working full-time in our industry in his rearview mirror. It’s been one of the greatest honors of my life to help many agents do this through the Training Day Success Package. At the end of the day, Daniel came to me as an amazing man and therefore he organically makes an amazing agent. Maturity is an advantage in life as well as in executive protection, employers and clients both know this. If an older agent can keep himself physically potent and formidable, there are many situations and lots of clientele that would actually prefer this individual on the job. There’s much for all of us to learn from Daniel, whether it’s his escape from communism or getting into executive protection, there’s something in this episode for everyone.

Females in the Executive Protection Industry have so much to offer like us all. Miranda is an amazing example of that as her words come true and experience doing this work all over the globe. She has a truly amazing story with more than just a cool tactical background. She brings with her the experience of being on the receiving end of kidnapping and abuse, and many other evils we all aim to mitigate in the world. She is truly an amazing human to me for a few reasons but primarily because she has transmuted those things that were meant for evil in her life into a source of power and a drive that empower her to make sure these things happened to fewer people on the planet during her time here. This is an interview about real-world experiences, tactics, and also best practices. There is something for everyone in here… Enjoy!

AARON has become a good friend as I’ve recently joined forces with him and CAA USA. I’m really excited about working with this company because I know that the MCK they produce is a hidden gem within the tactical community. When it comes to you taking your firearms to the next level, empowering people who maybe less physically potent with a system that can help them protect themselves more easily and a number of other things that piece of equipment is tremendous. Aaron works for that company but upon getting to know him better and learning about his background both with swat and gang units as a police officer, It became obvious very quickly that he had a tremendous amount of experience to share with all of us. There’s quite a bit for all of us to take into consideration from his experiences out in the field. Both physically and mentally when it comes to combative engagements Aaron has been through it and has come out even stronger. It’s always very encouraging to me when I see guys with legitimate backgrounds join forces with tactical companies because it means they really believe in the product. There’s no way we would stand behind something we wouldn’t trust our lives with and when you have the background you tend to have the conviction to make sure that is the case. This is an eye-opening interview with lots of stories about the world experience and tools that work out in the field… Enjoy!

In conversation with Wes Bearden, where we indulge in knowing about the National Council of Investigation and Security Services.

Sam Jones, he’s a man with an impressive background in mixed martial arts who chose to transition into executive protection. I love doing interviews like this because they show people exactly what is possible when it comes to getting into this industry.

This is a brief glimpse into the soul of a young man's journey from a Third World country, a broken home, through the Marine Corps infantry and into the executive protection profession. I now serve the world as a Protector. With the expressed mission of multiplying protectors both professionally and simply necessarily throughout the world. I know that we together can make the world a safer place by helping good people to become more willing, capable, and prepared to protect. But my journey wasn’t always easy… And this amazing interview was conducted by Sentinel Security Plus out of Toronto, Canada. We dive deep into various challenges and struggles that helped me become the man that I am today. I pray that this brief conversation can give each listener an insight into the tools I’ve used by the grace of God to transmute my life from something broken, imperfect and common; into something more than I ever could’ve dreamed I could’ve been. At the end of the day, I simply want you all to look at me and see what one imperfect man or woman can do if you simply sacrifice your imperfection on the altar of consistent progress over the course of a lifetime. 1 Corinthians 15:10 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

Steve has an amazing story when it comes to how he’s gotten into the executive protection game. Over the years I’ve met many different private security professionals in various areas of our private security industry that have wanted to get into executive protection. Whether it was a guy at the door of the club, an agent I met at the venue we were moving through, or even hotel security, I’ve had many conversations with professionals who want to get into the executive protection side of what we do. The interesting thing about these conversations is that I always tell them the exact same thing… It’s a bit counterintuitive but it is the truth. I built my Executive Protection career on the East Coast and the West Coast from a bouncing position at either a local bar in Orange County, California, or a high-end club in Fort Lauderdale Florida. I’ve lived it and I know that if you have the right values, skills, work ethic, and approach, opportunities will find you. The beauty of this interview is simply that Steve and I go back and forth about how this formula works and has worked in both of our lives not only to elevate us from one position to the next but also from the club to working C suite executives and “A” list talent. Steve is an exemplary agent with a background as a United States Marine. He has been running crews out here in Southern California and is now building his books out in Texas. I reached out to him for a number of things from time to time and he always delivers in spades and so it was an honor to bring him on the show and listen to him tell his story. This podcast isn’t always about having the most popular guys in the industry be heard but it’s also about hearing everyone at every level of our game. Newcomers to the industry, guys who are building their businesses and yes those we’ve all been impressed by. At the end of the day, this is a place for the industry to be heard not just the few at the top but all of us. Steve is one of the best representations of what I hope many of us strive to be in the executive protection game… There’s something in this for everyone as always… ENJOY!
