At 36, Admiral James Stavridis (@stavridisj)  had his first command, a guided missile destroyer with 350 sailors and a record of winning every award. He figured the streak would hold.

Then came a routine engineering inspection. The ship failed it so badly the inspectors told him he was not safe to operate, and they towed the destroyer back into port, past every other ship in San Diego, with the whole fleet watching.

He went home that night and told his wife his career was over.

The next day, the phone started ringing. The calls weren't from his bosses. They were from the other captains in the fleet. Bad day, they said. What do you need? A working party? Spare parts? Should I send my master chief over to help with training?

That was the day he learned what peers are really for.

"Your peers can save you, because they know you."

Richard Haass defines overreach as a policy that tries to do too much, either because the situation will not allow it or because it demands more resources than exist. He traces the pattern through Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq, and argues it is recurring now. Read his latest Substack here: richardhaass.substack.com… @RichardHaass

In 2010, 20-year-old Marine Kyle Carpenter threw himself on a live grenade in Afghanistan to shield a fellow Marine from the blast.

He spent five weeks unconscious. Over two and a half years at Walter Reed. More than 40 surgeries to rebuild what the explosion took - his right eye, most of his jaw, his arm broken in 30 places.

He survived. And then some.

Kyle went on to become the youngest living recipient of the Medal of Honor. He ran a marathon, earned a college degree, backpacked through Europe, hiked to Everest base camp, and went skydiving. He calls everything after that day in Afghanistan his bonus life.

"No matter what knocks you down in life, you can always get back up. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel."

America doesn’t have a cybersecurity problem. It has a software security problem. That’s the case Jen Easterly made on The Long Game with Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer. The former CISA Director and current CEO of RSAC walked through how insecure software has shifted risk from tech companies onto consumers, what China’s Volt Typhoon campaign revealed about US infrastructure, and how AI is reshaping cyber defense.

For years, the work was the whole life.

The schedule. The travel. Picking up and moving, leaving behind everyone you know and any sense of home. Over and over.

After a decade, Sophia Bush (@SophiaBush)  paused. She poked her head up like a meerkat, as she puts it, and got honest.

The realization wasn't to work less. It was to work differently. To think about where she wanted to go, what she'd take on, who she'd do it for.

Because the question underneath it all was simple:

"If all I'm doing is working, then what of my life do I love?"

Forty-one years ago, Ron Rivera became the first American of Puerto Rican descent to win a Super Bowl. 

Last week, he was inducted into the inaugural class of the Hispanic Football Hall of Fame, joining Tom Fears, Tom Flores, Ted Hendricks, Anthony Muñoz, Jim Plunkett, and Steve Van Buren as the seven names that opened the door.

In his own words: "When I played football at Cal, there weren't a lot of guys that were like me. To be accepted, to fit in, I felt I had to be special."

Two-time NFL Coach of the Year. Co-founder of the Hall of Fame that now honors him.

Connection isn't a soft extra. It's a precondition for trust, candor, and high performance, especially in hybrid and digitally saturated workplaces.

"When it comes to AI, adoption is everything."

Rishi Sunak (@RishiSunak) , former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, on the AI race that matters most. 

The headlines track which lab or which country is ahead this week. He argues the more important contest is what he calls the race for everyday AI, spreading the technology across the whole economy. 

And that does not happen unless small businesses come along too.
