From Service to Sports Media: Terry Spain on Leadership, Mentorship & Making the Transition
In this episode of Vet to Visionary, Reka sits down with Terry Spain — CEO of Sports First Media and Terry Spain Consulting. A retired U.S. Navy Chief turned global speaker, author, mentor, and seasoned sports commentator, Terry brings decades of leadership experience to the mic.
Terry shares his powerful journey from military service to entrepreneurship, offering insights on:
- The mindset shifts veterans need to thrive as business owners
- Why mentorship is a mission, not a moment
- The real challenges of transitioning from uniform to civilian life
- The discipline, goal-setting, and community support that shape long-term success
He also opens up about his work as an author — the stories behind his books, what drives his message, and what he hopes veterans take away from his words.
Whether you're a veteran navigating your next chapter, a founder building from the ground up, or someone looking to lead with more purpose — this conversation is full of wisdom and real talk.
