If you’re a fan of Black Rifle Coffee Company, you’re going to LOVE this announcement I have for you today.
I’ll be contributing articles to their publication, Free Range American, going forward. Bookmark my byline here.
What is Free Range American? One, it’s BRCC’s namesake podcast. Two, it’s also a lifestyle publication.
My first article is on blacksmith Lucas O’Hara and his company, Grizzly Forge. Here’s an excerpt:
Veterans transitioning to civilian life possess many marketable skills, but Lucas O’Hara credits blacksmithing for forging his path to success.
On a recent episode of Free Range American with Evan Hafer and Trevor Thompson, the Grizzly Forge founder recounted his journey from military service to metalworking and how he cultivated his passion for making knives.
“I loved every second of it,” the Army veteran said of his military service. “But I had a hard time balancing civilian life and military. Like, I’m an all-in kind of person. I have to be super in it or I don’t give it my all. So, right when I hit like my eight-and-a-half year, I got out. And that was when it was time to figure out what to do next.”
