Meet Monty below, and to support the show, the link below will take you to the Patreon page. Thank you! patreon.com/leadingwithvulnerability **Starting from a young age in Costa Rica, dreaming about being different and excelling was always in my mind; I began my journey at the age of 21 (2005) by joining the French Foreign Legion; during my time there, I was able to expand my knowledge and views of the world, which showed me how much work I have in the future to be an authentic leader, during my adventures in Africa or Europe I realized that I have a lot of work to do on myself. Then I decided to join the US army (2012), but this was an arduous task; going to another country unprepared is going to be one of the most challenging tasks of my life, and it will take me two years to get in (2010-2012). However, it was possible to make it happen because of the determination of my belief in becoming part of the best army in the world… The US Army. Today I will say the 75th Ranger Regiment gave me everything for my professional and personal development; I'm always going to be thankful to the US Army for making me a better human being, and I will always be grateful to the 75th Ranger regiment for making me the best soldier that I could become. The Regiment gave me one last gift that would ultimately push my limits mentally and physically: the Lancero School. Today with 17 years of military life and with less than one year left in the Army, I decided to step away and continue a new adventure in which I will be able to see other paths and always be part in an indirect way of the safety and security of this unique and beautiful country the United States of America. My skills go from using languages, like complete knowledge of French and Spanish to considerable expertise with the Portuguese and Italian languages, Close Protection (bodyguard), and in Maritimes schools. Let's not forget that social intelligence is one of the keys to every aspect of networking and is one of my most significant qualities. I am here to be part of all this networking. I dream that no matter where I go, or the place that I'm going to work with, I will make it better, and everyone around me will be a better professional and a natural leader. Leadership will always be something that I will be working on until the last day of my life; leadership is an endless act.**
