Episode 172: Steve Lazarus, Retired FBI Agent, USAF Veteran, and author of “Call me Sonny”
Manage episode 411726297 series 2829610
Steven Lazarus has done it all! From serving in the US Air Force, becoming an FBI agent and now published author! His narrative weaves from the military's rigid focus to the FBI's diverse landscape, where his roles spanned from narcotics to bomb disposal, reflecting on the adaptability required to navigate such shifts. We grapple with the notion that service, sacrifice, and the intensive search for a post-service equilibrium are not just career choices but life-altering decisions with profound personal impacts.
As Stephen unveils his post-FBI life, we are reminded that the pursuit of balance is as vital as any mission. From explosive fieldwork to the quieter, yet profound role of educating intelligence officers, Stephen's journey illustrates the importance of cultivating personal growth alongside professional achievements. His transition to writing a novel illuminates the rich tapestry of life after service, offering a resonant message about the importance of self-care and cherishing relationships amid the aftermath of a high-adrenaline career. Join us for an episode that's as much an exploration of resilience as it is a tribute to those who've served with valor.
