Undoubtedly you've heard about soldiers who have returned from deployments with physical injuries – injured or missing limbs, vision, hearing, etc. But some injuries are significantly harder to see. A substantial number of soldiers experience traumatic brain injuries caused by an accident or explosion. Since the injuries are invisible, they are harder to identify and treat. Often the symptoms are observed by friends, family members, and coworkers who witness a concerning change in personality or habits. Sometimes the injury manifests as atypical aggression or radical mood swings. Other times symptoms may be confusion, memory loss, and sleep disorders. What is apparent is that many different medical fields may be required to heal the injuries. This need is what makes Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund so unique. The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund builds beautiful, comfortable medical facilities adjacent to military bases. The aesthetics of the buildings are essential to provide an inviting atmosphere to injured soldiers who may be wary of therapy due to the stigmatization of psychological treatments. The revolutionary and unique interdisciplinary care model is even more critical to the program's success. Interdisciplinary care enables the treatments to be holistic and comprehensive. The efficacy of the interdisciplinary model is apparent from the success rate. A recent scientifically-based study showed that 90% of those treated continue their service. In addition, many of the 10% that don't return to service have other injuries that prohibit them from returning to active duty. Aside from continuing their service, the treated soldiers preserve their families and live fulfilling and happy lives.

In this episode, amazed by Peter Arianas' dogged determination and amazing ability to navigate through all the seemingly insurmountable challenges that came up in trying to close his first deal, Lance Edwards once dubbed him the "Poster Boy of Resilience." After completing one of Lance's early courses in small apartment investing, Arianas was finding himself stuck trying to get started, feeling there was a missing piece. With nothing to lose, flew to Houston to join Lance's hands-on mentoring program. When the deal that Arianas was working on in Akron, Ohio encountered a series of setbacks that would normally overwhelm a first time investor, Lance told him, "If I were you, I would back out." Fully believing that he could make good money on the deal if he stuck with it, Arianas chose not to take the advice – and his ultimate success earned Lance's utmost respect as one of the organization's early Apartment Champions. Tune in as Mr. Arianas will discuss the details of his experience investing in small apartments and his journey to run for Congress.
