About this episode

In this powerful episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I sit down with David Johnson—a former law enforcement officer, Secret Service agent, and now pastor—who shares his incredible journey of service, sacrifice, and transformation. Together, we dive into what it means to navigate the challenges of masculinity in today’s world while balancing the call to be a present father and husband.

David opens up about his career highlights, including high-stakes missions with the Secret Service, near-death experiences, and the emotional toll of the job. He also reflects on his transition from protecting some of the world’s most prominent leaders to becoming a spiritual leader in his community. His story is one of redemption, resilience, and finding purpose in the midst of life’s storms.

Whether you're wrestling with your identity as a man or looking for inspiration to pursue wholeness and healing, this episode is packed with real talk and actionable insights. Don't miss it!
