Mike Erwin on Leadership, Service, and Building Team RWB

In this episode, I speak with Mike Erwin, CEO of Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB). A West Point graduate and veteran, Mike shares insights from his military service, founding Team RWB in 2010 to support veterans through social and physical connections, and the growth of the organization to 214 chapters and 181,000 members. We explore his leadership journey, life on his 42-acre farm, and his training for the JFK 50 Miler, emphasizing the importance of community and servant leadership.

We discuss the power of social connection, lessons from West Point, and how Team RWB fosters camaraderie similar to military life. Mike’s passion for supporting veterans is clear as he reflects on inspiring stories and the value of physical activity for mental and emotional health. Join us for this conversation highlighting resilience, community, and the pursuit to uplift veteran heroes.
