b'From the cardboard to chemo, Tim Lawson\'s journey of resilience started as a young teenager battling Hodgkin\\u2019s Lymphoma, and now he joins us as the newest member of the #YearOfTheVet family!

November 2002\\u2026 a 17 year-old aspiring B-Boy gets diagnosed with cancer\\u2026 May 2003: remission\\u2026 2006: a Hard-Charging Marine. Not too long after separation... a suicide survivor...

This conversation takes Tim from behind his mic, and gives him the platform to talk about himself for once\\u2014and thank God for that!

The conversation we have is so rich with knowledge and personality, and we cover topics as deep as depression, to the reason we should wear pants during an interview.

Tim created his foundation in Digital Media in the days before podcasting and social media were popular forms of entertainment\\u2026 and what that means is that he\\u2019s been honing his craft for the better half of decade, having created and ended more projects than Thanksgiving dinners you\\u2019ve eaten since Y2K. What drove him was the love he had for talking to people, as well as being able to freely create creative content\\u2014and throughout that time he got to experience the highs, and he also really experienced the lows. And because of his journey, he\\u2019s able to come onto #YearOfTheVet and share the lessons learned during his road to the top!

Tim and I talk transition (of course), entrepreneurship, podcasts\\u2026 but we also talk about the importance of seeking out someone to be able to talk to, as well as the expense of \\u201cfinding yourself.\\u201d A lesson learned from this conversation is to not keep your mouth closed when you want or need something, and that it\\u2019s ok to rely on your network for not only times of abundance, but also in times of need.

As it pertains to dealing with depression, which Tim is well versed in, he mentions that awareness is key, and suggests that an individual should seek out therapy when feeling good and happy, and not as a last resort\\u2014or when depressed. And that\\u2019s mainly because therapy should be seen as a tool, and not as a weakness or a burden.

And speaking of tools\\u2026 Tim shares a few of his favorites, that he feels will help individuals be better versions of themselves!

I had a phenomenal time talking to the man with the Golden Voice, and I hope that you enjoy this conversation with Marine Corps Veteran\\u2026 Mr. Timothy Lawson!
