America's 250th Birthday

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, we ask an important question:
Are we doing enough to support the men and women who defended our freedom?

In this special Independence Month episode of Brainstorms, host Dr. Lori Crissinger welcomes retired Colonel David Williamson, an Air Force veteran, community leader, educator, and longtime advocate for veterans transitioning into civilian life.

Together they explore why America must move beyond simply thanking veterans and begin truly guarding our guardians.

Colonel Williamson shares decades of leadership experience—from commanding Air Force personnel to helping thousands of veterans identify their skills, find meaningful careers, and successfully transition into civilian life. His unique perspective challenges employers, educators, community leaders, and every American to better understand the incredible value veterans bring long after their military service ends.

As Resurrecting Lives Foundation prepares for the release of Guarding Our Guardians, this conversation serves as a powerful call to action for America's next 250 years.

If you believe our veterans deserve more than gratitude—that they deserve opportunity, understanding, and purpose after service—this episode is for you.
