USMMA - 2004 - Building A Life Beyond Survival Mode

This episode features the host of this podcast, Victoria Adams, formally Victoria Gigante, a 2004 graduate from the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. In this episode, Victoria dives deep into why the majority of her time at the Academy and in the military was spent living in survival mode, and how she was eventually able to turn her struggles at the Academy into the strong foundation necessary to build a life in which she's now thriving. As a side note, when you hear Victoria's story you’ll understand why she has very few photos from her time both at the Academy and in the military. If you visit the show notes page, however, you’ll get to see the one fun photo someone sent to her many years after graduation. Enjoy the show!
