## Resource

In this episode of Helping The Brave Podcast, Ed Parcaut talks with Scott English, a former Canadian Army medic and Navy diver who now leads Combat Fitness, a performance-focused training business for military, law enforcement, and tactical athletes. Scott shares his journey through service, his transition out, and how burnout, operational demands, and changing priorities pushed him toward entrepreneurship. He and Ed talk about the realities of military medicine, the difference between field and clinical environments, the mental toll of the COVID period on service members, and why veterans often make strong business owners after they leave the military. They also dive into training philosophy, injury prevention, tactical performance, and the need to stop breaking people in the name of "fitness." This is a conversation about discipline, systems, leadership, and building a new mission after service. *Contact Ed Parcaut:** - 🌍 Website: [edparcaut.com](http://edparcaut.com) - 📱 Twitter: [@edparcaut](https://twitter.com) For more resources and support, visit HelpingTheBrave.com. #HelpingTheBrave #EdParcaut #ScottEnglish #CombatFitness #MilitaryTransition #VeteranEntrepreneur #VeteranFitness #TacticalFitness #LifeAfterService #MilitaryPodcast #VeteranCommunity #LawEnforcementFitness #TacticalAthlete #FormerMedic #VeteransHelpingVeterans Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/helping-the-brave-podcast--6413915/support .
