with former Navy SEAL, Jonathan Fuller
What happens when the habits and mindset that once made you successful start holding you back?
In this episode of Consequence of Habit, JT sits down with Jonathan Fuller, a former Navy SEAL, father, and tech professional who spent nine years in the SEAL teams before transitioning into civilian life.
JT and Jon first connected during a Rites of Passage experience in Alabama, where they spent four days examining their lives, habits, and the things they wanted to change.
Jon shares how he went from an unlikely candidate for the Navy SEALs to building the discipline and determination needed to make it through training. But after leaving the military, he found himself facing a different kind of challenge: figuring out who he was without the identity, structure, and purpose that had defined nearly a decade of his life.
Despite finding success in his civilian career, Jon struggled with frustration, burnout, unhealthy coping habits, and the realization that the way he was living was affecting his marriage, children, and overall well-being.
They discuss the challenges of transitioning out of the military, the relationship between identity and habits, and why the behaviors that serve us during one chapter of life may need to change in the next.
Jon also opens up about his decision to step away from work, prioritize his mental health, and rebuild his daily routines through journaling, mindfulness, movement, and intentional living.
Throughout the conversation, JT and Jon explore the importance of self-awareness, the power of getting 1% better each day, and why personal transformation isn't something you accomplish once. It's something you continue working toward throughout your life.
Changing your habits doesn't just change your own life. It changes how you show up for the people who matter most.
